10 ml graduated cylinder this graduated cylinder has white lines going completely.
How to read a 10ml graduated cylinder. The graduated cylinders are always read to 2 decimal places. To find the scale increment, subtract the values of any two adjacent labeled. If you are unsure of the size of your cylinder, you can measure it with a caliper.
This video will discuss when to use a graduated cylinder and how to read it. A graduated cylinder is meant to be read with the surface of the liquid at eye level, where the center of the meniscus shows the measurement line. If you look at a 10ml graduated cylinder, for example, the smallest graduation is tenth of a milliliter (0.1ml).
Indigo class b cylinders are rated at 1% accuracy if read properly and is shown in the video below. You can also use a ruler to measure the diameter. Therefore, the scale increment is 2.
Locate 2 consecutive labeled graduations on the cylinder. Depending on the size of the graduated cylinder and the graduations, the uncertain digit may be to the milliliter ( 1x ), the. 10 ml and 15 ml determine the value between the labeled graduations by subtracting the 2 values.
The uncertain digit (the last digit of the reading) is estimated. Next, count that there are tenintervals between the labeled graduations.
