Best Answer

Reading a burette at eye level helps minimize parallax error, which occurs when the liquid level appears higher or lower than it actually is due to the angle of viewing. This ensures more accurate and precise measurements when conducting experiments.

What is the proper way to read a burette?

Any fluid!!! It is like a pipette, however, it is usually more accurate because you can use a burette loader which allows fine tuning of the liquid but not as fine as a gilson pipette. Basically, it is just a piece of apparatus used measuring liquids.

How do you clean pipette?

First remove all the solid particles from the burette using a scrubber. Then wash the burette with tap water followed by distilled water thoroughly (even the nozzle). Then wash the burette with the solution to be used in the burette.


What is is the use of burette holder in chemistry lab?

In analytical chemistry so many experiments are to be carried out to analyse the chemical properties of solutions/substances. The accuracy of analysis depend on the accuracy of iteration. An accurate reading is possible when it is fixed at perfect vertical position. In order to hold burette in a perfect vertical position during experiment a clamp must be used.
