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.

∙ 10y agoBefore beginning to record a reading, examine the burette closely. A burette has zero at the top with values increasing going down the scale. On the burette where the scale values increase going down, record digits by looking at the last graduation above the meniscus. A close look at the liquid level in a burette shows very clearly where the meniscus is located. The meniscus is the curve in the liquid level. When the burette is conditioned and filled, with no air bubbles or leaks, take an initial volume reading. A burette reading card with a black rectangle can help to take a more accurate reading. Read the bottom of the meniscus. Be sure that the user eyes are at the level of meniscus, not above or below. Reading from an angle, rather than straight on, results in a parallax error.

Is a burette the best tool to measure acid?
Yes, a burette is the best tool for measuring acidYes, a burette is the best tool for measuring acid
Which is most accurate burette beaker measuring cylinder and volumetric flask?
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.
What is an acid burette?
If you have an acid in your conical flask then the base will go into the burette. The burette is used to measure the amounts of base you are adding and therefore you will be able to determine the end point which is normally determined by a colour change.
Why rinse the burette with distilled water?
To remove any trace of other chemicals that may still be in the burette.
What is the most accurate way to measure volume?
using pycnometry because the density of water is very accurate
Why is it important to clamp the burette vertically?
To ensure that the actual volume of liquid delivered into the conical flask is read accurately
Is a burette the best tool to measure acid?
Yes, a burette is the best tool for measuring acidYes, a burette is the best tool for measuring acid
What instruments holds the burette?
A ring clamp is used to hold a burette.

What is Relative standard uncertainty in burette?
The smallest possible burette reading is 0.10 and the uncertainty of a burette's reading is half of its smallest value (0.05).
What is the pupose of a burette?
A burette is used to very accurately measure liquid volumes.
Which is most accurate burette beaker measuring cylinder and volumetric flask?
burette
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.
