Is a thermometer a graduated cylinder?
No, a thermometer is not a graduated cylinder. A thermometer is used to measure temperature, while a graduated cylinder is used to measure volume of liquids.
What is the first thing you have to determine when using a graduated cylinder?
The first thing you have to determine when using a graduated cylinder is the volume of liquid it can hold and the smallest volume increment it can measure. This helps ensure that you are using the appropriate graduated cylinder for your measurements and that you are able to read the volume accurately.
How could the volume of a 12 sided object be found using water and a graduated cylinder?
it can be found by first taking the volume of the water itself and then the volume of the object in the water. you pour water into the 12-sided object, then measure the amount of water using the graduated cylinder. Then you do this: length x width x height = volume
What unit does the graduated cylinder get marked in?
Graduated cylinders are marked in milliliters (mL).
What glasswares are used in measuring volume?
graduated cylinder
If an object floats in a beaker as shown assuming the graduated cylinder was empty when the object was placed in the beaker and the beaker was full to the level of the spout what must be true?
stop cheating on gizmos, fool. :)The Answer: The mass of the water in the graduated cylinder is equal to the mass of the object.lol
Can mass be measured in a graduated cylinder?
No. You mesure volume with a graduated cylinder.
What instrument is used to to find volume?
Graduated cylinder
How can you calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.
How is volume of an irregular object calculated?
To find the volume of an irregular object such as a rock, you have to use displacement. If you place the object in a graduated cylinder filled with water, the volume of the object is equal to the amount of water that the object displaces. For example, if a graduated cylinder is filled with 100mL of water, and you place an object such as a rock and the water rises from 100mL to 106mL, then the volume of the rock is 6.
Where do you measure the volume of a liquid on a graduated cylinder?
You measure the volume of a liquid on a graduated cylinder at the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the liquid.
What do you call the procedure that helps you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object while using a graduated cylinder?
displacement - invented by Archimedes. Completely fill a large volume of something with water. Have a spout to channel all excess water. Place a graduated cylinder under the spout. Place irregular object in the large volume filled with water. The volume of the irregular object will displace an equivalent volume of water into the graduated cylinder. The measured volume in the cylinder is the volume of the irregular object.
What does a graduated cylinder calculate?
volume
A sample of zinc is placed in a graduated cylinder. The initial volume of water= 15.0mL and final volume of water and sample= 24.0mL. Determine the mass of the sample of zinc?
what?
A graduated cylinder used to find what of a liquid?
A graduated cylinder is used to find the VOLUME of a liquid.
Is a thermometer a graduated cylinder?
No, a thermometer is not a graduated cylinder. A thermometer is used to measure temperature, while a graduated cylinder is used to measure volume of liquids.
A nugget of gold is placed in a graduated cylinder that contains 80 ml of water the water level rises to 225 ml after the nugget is added to the cylinder what is the volume of the gold nugget?
The volume of the gold nugget can be calculated by subtracting the final volume (225 ml) from the initial volume (80 ml) of water in the graduated cylinder. Therefore, the volume of the gold nugget is 145 ml.
