Pipettes are used for measuring and transferring small amounts of liquids in an experiment.
The answer depends on the quantity of liquid. A graduated cylinder will not be much use in measuring the volume of liquid in an ocean!
A Mohr pipette is a type of pipette that measures the volume of dispensed liquids. It is less accurate compared to a volumetric pipette.
The glassware that provides the most accurate measurement of volume is the measuring cup. A glass measuring cup has lines on it to give an accurate reading.
It is fitted on to the end of a pipette, a graduated glass tube used to measure varying volumes of liquid, and is used to draw up the liquid safely.

the pipette is the most accurate
The calibration of a pipette is made taking into account this small volume.
Measuring Pipette is for small amount of volume only.Graduated Cylindrers is for measuring large amount of volume.
A micropipette is very fine pipette for measuring, transferring, or injecting very small quantities of liquid whereas a olumetric pipettes are tools for measuring precise volumes of a liquid. Pipettes are typically long tubes, open on both ends, marked to contain (or deliver) a certain volume of liquid.
Pipettes are used to transport liquids. Graduated pipettes are marks similarly to graduated cylinders, indicating different calibrated volumes. Volumetric pipettes only mark a single volume of measurement, and as such require different pipettes for different quantities.
A pipette is a laboratory tool used to transport a measured volume of liquid.
A graduated pipette can deliver an exact volume of liquid.
To get a very accurate volume of hydroxylamine.
Pipettes are used to move specific volumes of fluid between containers. For very small volumes, or very precise applications, a large error in the desired fluid volume can have a very large impact. Calibrating a pipette ensures that the volume desired is the volume collected. Proper sealing of pipette tips can also have a large impact on fluid volumes collected.
The calibration of a pipette is made taking into account this small volume.
A pipette measures a certain set volume of a liquid (often a multiple of 5mL), normally for use in titrations.
