When the diameter of the cylinder increases what happens to the curve of the meniscus?

When the diameter of the cylinder increases, the meniscus curve becomes less pronounced. This is because the larger diameter allows for a greater surface area, reducing the surface tension effects that create the meniscus curve.


Is the curve at a liquids surface by which you measure the volume of a liquid?

The meniscus is the curve at a liquid's surface by which one measures the volume of the liquid. A meniscus can be concave or convex depending on whether it is attracted to itself or the glass.


Do you measure volume to the top or bottom of the muniscus?

The meniscus is a curve in the surface of a liquid that is caused by surface tension and by the attraction between the liquid and the sides of the container. The bottom of the meniscus represents the most accurate measurement because the lines of a graduated cylinder are in the middle of the graduated cylinder.


What will change when some water is poured into a measuring cylinder?

The volume reading on the measuring cylinder will increase due to the addition of the water. The meniscus, or the curve at the surface of the water, will form and the volume measured will be the amount of water that was poured in.


How do you read meniscus on a graduated cylinder?

All liquids have a surface tension. This tension creates a meniscus or curve on the surface, most noticeable in small diameter tubes or cylinders. The meniscus of water curves up the sides of the cylinder, while heavy liquids like mercury curves down the cylinder. You should always measure light liquids at the bottom of the meniscus and heavy liquids at the top of the meniscus.

What is the name of the curve on the graduated cylinder?

The curve on a graduated cylinder is called a meniscus. It occurs due to surface tension between the liquid and the container, causing the liquid to curve at the edges. When measuring volume in a graduated cylinder, the bottom of the meniscus should be used for accurate readings.

Adhesion is responsible for the surface of the water in a graduated cylinder that is slightly curved at the sides.


What is the bottom of the curve of liquid in a graduated cylinder?

Since the surface of water rises up to the sides of the cylinder, the low point is in the center of the surface. (Volume is assumed unless boiling or melting points are stated)
