The pressure of the gases in the eudiometer tube must equal the atmospheric pressure. If the water levels are not at he same height, then this is not the case. Therefore, in order to account for this difference and get accurate results, you must subtract the water levels and convert to mmHg.

50ml from a large beaker measured in a measuring cylinder is actually?

A small difference exist because the beaker is not calibrated for volume.


How is density of a liquid measured?

The density of a liquid can be measured with a beaker. the beaker is weighed alone, then a specific measured volume of the liquid is placed in the beaker and the beaker is reweighed. The difference between the beaker with and without the water is noted. from there the mass of the liquid for the specific volume is then known. using hte formula d = m/v, we can therefore determine the density. where m is in kg and v is in liters.


Mass by difference?

mass by difference is an indirect way to find the mass of an object. For example, if you know the mass of a 'beaker and the substance in it' and the 'mass of the beaker', you can determine the mass of the substance by subtracting (mass of beaker + substance) - (mass of beaker)


What quantity is measured with a beaker?

Volume.


What is a beaker measured in?

A beaker is typically measured in milliliters (ml) or liters (L) to indicate its capacity for holding liquid. The graduated markings on the side of a beaker help to measure the volume of liquid it contains.


Should we measure the mass of a beaker before measuring a chemical or powder inside the beaker?

You can do that or you can zero balance the scale with the empty beaker on it before adding the substance to be measured to the beaker.


Is a beaker measured in ml?

Beakers can come in any measures.


How does is the temperature of beaker measure in water?

The temperature of a beaker is typically measured using a thermometer that is placed in the water inside the beaker. The thermometer will provide a reading of the water temperature, which indirectly reflects the temperature of the beaker as well.


Is measure a transitive verb?

It is transititve. For example, I measured the water in the beaker.


Does the size of the beaker determine how fast or slow water cools down?

No, the size of the beaker does not determine how fast or slow water cools down. The rate at which water cools down is primarily influenced by the temperature difference between the water and its surroundings, the material of the beaker, and any insulation present around the beaker.


What is the difference between a graduated beaker and beaker?

A graduated beaker has markings on the side to measure volume accurately, while a regular beaker does not have these markings. Graduated beakers are typically used when precise volume measurements are needed, while regular beakers are used for general mixing and holding liquids.
