The answer is a graduated cylinder.
Graduated cylinder
Which lab tool might you use to measure the volume of a liquid?
Test tubes and lab rat cages.
To obtain the density you need to know the mass, and the volume of the object.So you'd have to weigh it using a balance to obtain the mass.The easiest way to measure the volume (particularly if it's an irregular shape) would be via the displacement of water.density = mass / volume
There are three ways to measure volume. If you are measuring a liquid, you need a graduated cyliner. If you are measuring the volume of a regular solid, you need a ruler to measure length, width, and height. You would then use the formula V=LxWxH. The third way to measure volume is to use displacement to find the volume of an irregular solid. You would put a certain amount of water in a graduated cylinder, write the starting amount down. Add the irregular solid to the graduated cylinder. Record the ending amount of liquid and subtract the ending amount minus the starting amount.
A graduated cylinder
A beaker. Simply fill the beaker with a known quantity of liquid. Drop the object into the beaker, and measure the difference in the fluid levels.
In a modern lab, you would use a digital scale to measure mass. Historically, balances and spring scales were used.
In most cases a graduated cylinder is used, but it depends on the volume you want to measure. You can also use a micropipette, a volumetric flask, or any other number of measurement devices.
A graduated beaker measures volume in milliliters.
a graduated cylinder is a piece of lab glassware used to hold liquids. 'graduated' means it has a scale of measurement (usually in mLs) to measure liquids. make sure to always measure at the bottom of the miniscus for accurate data.
