Graduated cylinders measure volumes in milliliters usually, and most are guaranteed by manufacturers to be accurate to within ± 1 mL.
these are same as c.c. that's cubic centimeter
mL
Fill the graduated cylinder with water, and measure the volume. Now put the item in, measure the water's volume again, and take the difference
Depending on how accurate you want to be you can use a variety of methods. Common methods include the following (with increasing level of accuracy) 1) graduated cylinder 2) volumetric pipette. 3) Calibrated micro-pipette (may require more than one transfer)
A graduated cylinder is a piece of laboratory glassware used to accurately measure out volumes of chemicals for use in reactions. They are generally more accurate and precise for this purpose than beakers or erlenmeyer flasks, although not as precise as a volumetric flask or volumetric pipet. They come in a variety of sizes for different volumes, typically 10 mL, 25 mL, 50 mL, or 100 mL and up to as large as 1 or 2 liters.Determine the volume contained in a graduated cylinder by reading the bottom of the meniscus at eye level.In other words, holding the graduated cylinder at eye level, the bottom of the curved surface of the liquid (called the meniscus) is where you read off the mark on the graduated cylinder to determine the volume properly.

If you measure properly, the amount of water does not change. Measurement with whatever graduated cylinder you choose will not alter the amount of liquid measured. Most people choose to measure once with a larger one, but if the amount of liquid falls between the measurement lines, you can measure the "leftover" with a smaller cylinder and find the exact answer.

You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.
Graduated cylinder is a tool to measure volumes.
The unit of measurement that a graduated cylinder uses is the volume/mass of water.
well with a graduated cylinder you can measure liquid
You cannot measure the mass of a solid with a graduated cylinder.
A graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume, or capacity of water. Or to just measure Water.
The function of a graduated cylinder in the laboratory is to measure volumes.
it depends... why would you use a graduated cylinder?
Graduated Cylinder.
The smallest measurement on a graduated cylinder depends on the particular cylinder, since different sizes and brands exist. A common unit to measure by in a graduated cylinder is 1/100th of a liter.
