It really depends on how much you are measuring. Like over 100ml and I'd stick to a large graduated cylinder. Under 1 ml (possibly up to 5ml even) and you could keep adjusting a micropipette until all the sample is just taken up for an estimate. 5-100, you could use a graduated cylinder for an estimate and calibrate the graduated cylinder against a burette

What is measured on the gay lussac scale?

The Gay-Lussac scale measures the alcohol content in a liquid, typically in spirits like vodka, rum, or whiskey. It is a method for determining the strength of a distilled spirit by measuring the percentage of alcohol by volume.


Method to obtain density of liquid?

To obtain the density of a liquid, you would need to measure its mass and volume. The density is then calculated by dividing the mass of the liquid by its volume. Typically, this is done using a balance to measure mass and a graduated cylinder to measure volume.


To explain one method that might be used to determine the density of a solid material and one method that might be used to determine the density of a liquid?

One method to determine the density of a solid material is to measure its mass using a balance and then measure its volume using a graduated cylinder or displacement method. Divide the mass by the volume to find the density. For a liquid, one method is to measure its mass using a balance and then measure its volume by using a graduated cylinder or a specific gravity bottle. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density.


How is the density of a small solid sample whose mass and volume is difficult to measure is determined?

Use a container with a liquid (water). Mark the level of the liquid on the container. Insert the small solid sample. Mark the level of the liquid now on the container. compute the difference between the two marks. You can use traditional computation for calculating volume.


What do you discover when determining mass and volume?

You might discover that solids have mass and they have volume.

What 3 methods are used for determining volume?

Three methods used for determining volume include measuring the displacement of water when an object is submerged in it (displacement method), calculating the volume by multiplying the object's dimensions (geometric method), and using graduated cylinders or volumetric flasks to directly measure liquid volumes (liquid displacement method).

What is the significance of the lower meniscus in determining the volume of a liquid in a graduated cylinder?

The lower meniscus is important in determining the volume of a liquid in a graduated cylinder because it is the curved surface at the bottom of the liquid level. When measuring volume, the measurement is taken at the bottom of the meniscus to ensure accuracy, as the liquid tends to curve slightly at the edges due to surface tension.


Will the second method for determining volume work for any object or just an irregularly shaped one?

Why does the first method for determining volume work only for a regularly object?

The first method for determining volume involves using formulas specific to regular shapes like cubes or prisms, which have simple geometric properties that allow for straightforward calculations. Irregular objects do not have uniform dimensions that can easily be plugged into these formulas, making the method unsuitable for determining their volumes.


What is the first method for determining volume work only for a regular shaped object?

What is the volume by displacement?

Volume by displacement is a method used to measure the volume of irregularly shaped objects by submerging them in a liquid-filled container and measuring the amount of liquid displaced. The volume of the object is equal to the volume of liquid displaced, as per Archimedes' principle.
