There are many instruments used. And it all comes down to what you want the water for. For a general estimate, a beaker can be used for larger quantities of water, but the measurements can be off. A graduated cylinder is great for measuring accurately, but generally doesn't hold as much water. Extremely accurate devices include a pipet (like a big eyedropper) or a buret. But these generally hold very very small amounts of water. If you don't know what these devices look like, you can simply Google them.

∙ 10y agoIt would depend on the quantity of the water being measured. You wouldn't want to measure the volume of water in a pool in mL. So I would use a beaker or graduated cylindar for smaller amounts.
