It depends on the smallest unit. For a 10mL graduated cylinder, the smallest unit is usually 0.1mL while a 100mL graduated cylinder is usually 1mL. Therefore:

10mL= (0.1mL/2) is an uncertainty of 0.05mL

100mL=(1mL/2) is an uncertainty of 0.5 mL

Another way to think of it is that there are ten 10mL cylinders in an 100mL cylinder, so the 100mL cylinder has an uncertainty of ten times the 10mL.

Hope this helped!

Percentage error in 5ml graduated pipette?

To calculate the percentage error in a 5ml graduated pipette, you need to know the least count or uncertainty of the pipette. Divide the uncertainty by the volume (5ml) and then multiply by 100 to get the percentage error. For example, if the uncertainty is ±0.1 ml, the percentage error would be 0.1/5 * 100 = 2%.


How many grams does an empty graduated cylinder have?

An empty graduated cylinder typically weighs around 100-200 grams, depending on its size and material.


What is one advantage of using a 100 milliliter graduated cylinder?

One advantage of using a 100 milliliter graduated cylinder is that it allows for more precise measurements of volume compared to smaller graduated cylinders. This larger size reduces parallax errors and allows for easier reading of the meniscus.

Which graduated cylinder would be the best one to use to measure exactly 15ml of water Why?

Either a 100 mL or a 50 mL The 50 mL is better because you can see the meniscus against the graduated lines of the cylinder better.

What are some disadvantages of a 10 ml over a 100ml graduated cylinder?

Some disadvantages of using a 10 ml graduated cylinder over a 100 ml graduated cylinder include limited capacity for holding liquids, which may require multiple measurements and increase the likelihood of errors. Additionally, the smaller markings on a 10 ml cylinder can make it more challenging to accurately read the volume, especially for smaller increments.


When using a 100 mL graduated cylinder what decimal place do you use?

When using a 100 mL graduated cylinder, you typically read the volume measurement to two decimal places (e.g., 23.45 mL). The first decimal place represents the milliliter increments, while the second decimal place represents the tenths of a milliliter.


What do you use to measure milliliters?

a graduated cylinder. If you can find one that measures 100 mL, then this will be most accurate. If you find one that measures 1000 mL, this will be less accurate.
