What is a meniscus why is it necessary to know about it when necessary liquids?
Meniscus is the curved surface of a liquid in a container; to measure correctly the volume in a graduated cylinder it is necessary to take into account the meniscus type, convex or concave.
Uses of a graduated cylinder?
1. Look at the liquid at eye level 2. Measure from the meniscus (the curved line at the surface of the liquid) 3. Be sure to measure your intervals (the value of each measurement line on the cylinder)
What is the curved upper surface of a liquid called?
A meniscus.
What is a meniscus why it necessary to know about it when measuring liquids?
The meniscus is the concave line of liquid that forms in a graduated cylinder (measuring volume) due to that liquid's adhesion (the tendency to want to stick to other things). When measuring a liquid's volume in a graduated cylinder, you read the volume from the bottom of the meniscus. Therefore, the meniscus does not measure anything, it is where you measure a liquid's volume from.
What is it called when material moves down slope along a curved surface called?
A slump
Explain Why is the surface of water in a graduated cylinder curved?
it is probably called figure it out, it is curved because glass is sticky. When you measure the volume from a graduated cylinder, measure at the bottom of it. It is called the meniscus.
What is the curved surface of a graduated cylinder?
A maniacs
What is the curved surface of a liquid in a graduated cylinder?
Meniscus.
The area of the curved surface of a cylinder is called the?
It called the curved surface area. There is no special name for it.
The area of the curved surface of a cylinder is called?
It called the curved surface area. There is no special name for it.
When using the measuring cylinder do you talk the measurement at the side of the cured surface or the curved surface?
I think you are talking about a graduated cylinder. When measuring liquids in a grad. cylinder you should read at the bottom of the miniscus ( the curved surface of the water or other liquid).
When reading a graduated cylinder you look at?
When you read a scale on the side of a container with a meniscus, such as a graduated cylinder or volumetric flask, it's important that the measurement accounts for the ... For mercury, take the measurement from the top of the meniscus. ...

What is the the bottom of a curved line in a graduated cylinder?
The "bottom of a curved line" made by the liquid in a graduated cylinder could be called the "measuring line" or "reference line" in the application of that piece of labratory equipment. The curved surface of the liquid itself is called the meniscus, and we look to the bottom of the meniscus to make our reading as to the volume of the liquid in the graduated cylinder. The liquid in the cylinder "grabs" the sides of the cylinder and "pulls itself up" just a bit, and that creates the curve in the surface of the liquid. And that curve, the meniscus (which is from the Greek word for crescent), leaves us with a problem: where do we "read" the volume marked off by the graduations along the side of the cylinder? And the answer is, "At the bottom of the meniscus."
What is the curved line that forms when water is in a graduated cylinder?
This line is called the meniscus.
What shape has two faces and can roll?
A cylinder. Technically, the curved surface of a cylinder is not called a face, only the flat surfaces, so a cylinder has 2 faces and one curved surface.
What is the curve of the top surface of water in a graduated a graduated cylinder called?
Adhesion is responsible for the surface of the water in a graduated cylinder that is slightly curved at the sides.
