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!

Which Piece of laboratory equipment is used to determine the volume of a liquid?

If you are doing a lab experiment or you use the metric system, a gradulated cylinder would be an ideal choice. if you are cooking or just doing something irrelevant to what you are supposed to be doing, i would use an average kitchen measuring cup (teaspoon, table spoon, one cup, etc...)


What is a displacement beaker?

a displacement beaker (canister) is used to determine volume of irregular objects. Water is put into the beaker up to the spout, and then an object is placed inside; the water that pours out is collected in a more accurate measurement device, this water is equal (or close to) the volume of the object.


Can you use a kilogram to measure a liquid?

While a kilogram is a unit of mass, it can indirectly be used to measure the volume of a liquid by converting the mass to a volume using the liquid's density. The density of the liquid will determine how much volume is equivalent to a kilogram of that liquid.


What are the uses of measuring cylinder?

Measuring cylinders are used to accurately measure liquid volumes in laboratory settings. They are commonly used to transfer liquids, prepare solutions, and determine the volume of a liquid sample. They typically have graduated markings for precise measurements.


How do you determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container?

To determine the density of each 50 mL liquid container, you would first weigh the empty container. Next, fill the container with the liquid and weigh it again. The difference in weight between the filled and empty container can be used to calculate the density by dividing the weight of the liquid by the volume of the container.


True or false one method used to measure the volume of an irregular solid involves immersing the object in the water?

Traditionally, displacement is when you place a solid in a known amount of liquid, then determine the volume based on how much liquid is displaced by the object. You can't displace a liquid with another liquid and find its volume. With that said, the statement "One method used to determine the volume of solids and liquids is displacement" must be completely true. However, as we established in the previous paragraph, displacement is not a method for finding the volume of a liquid. Because an "and" operator is used in the statement, that means displacement must apply to both solids and liquids, or the statement as a whole is unsound. And since we previously determined that displacement is not a method for finding the volume of a liquid, this makes the statement unsound and false.


If a liquid is to be used to determine the volume of a solid by displacement method what three criteria must be made?

Two of them are: the volume of the water, and how much there is.


What type of density is a graduated cylinder?

The question seems absurd has no meaning. measuring cylinder is a device to measure the volume. if you want to find density of a cube, you an find volume displaced and knowing mass can find the density - Archimedean principle it is beyond the scope of this page to answer fully


What does A Graduated Cylinder used for?

It is used primarily to accurately measure liquid volume. It can also be used to measure solid volume by liquid displacement.
