Are correct procedures for reading the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?

Water in a glass graduated cylinder adheres to the sides of the cylinder, forming a meniscus which is an upward curve. When reading volume in a cylinder, look at the meniscus at eye level. Read the volume at the bottom of the curve.


How can you calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object?

If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.


What do you call the procedure that helps you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object while using a graduated cylinder?

displacement - invented by Archimedes. Completely fill a large volume of something with water. Have a spout to channel all excess water. Place a graduated cylinder under the spout. Place irregular object in the large volume filled with water. The volume of the irregular object will displace an equivalent volume of water into the graduated cylinder. The measured volume in the cylinder is the volume of the irregular object.


How do you find the density of the irregular object?

First find the mass of the object. You need to find the volume of the irregular object. You do this by water displacement. If the object can fit into a graduated cylinder, you fill the cylinder with enough water to completely cover the object. DO NOT put the object in yet. Record that volume. Then gently place the object into the cylinder and record the new volume of water. The difference between the first and second volume is the volume of the object in mL, which is the same as cm3. If the object is too big to fit in a graduated cylinder, you can use an overflow can. You fill the can completely with water. The can has a downspout that will allow the water to flow out of the can. To do this, fill an overflow can completely with water. Allow the excess water to drain out of the downspout. Then place a beaker under the downspout. Gently put the object into the overflow can and catch the water that flows out in the beaker. Pour the water into a graduated cylinder and read the volume. This is the volume of the irregular solid. You can also hold a graduated cylinder under the downspout and let the water flow into the cylinder directly. The volume in the cylinder is the volume of the irregular object. Once you have the volume of the irregular solid, you can use the density formula to find density. Density = mass/volume. See the related links below.

What happens to the temperature of boiling water in an open container?

The liquid will expand, it's volume will increase. If it becomes heated enough, it will evaporate (turn into a gas). The more heated it becomes, the more its volume must increase to keep the same pressure.
