The volume of the liquid in each cylinder are given below
A. 48.9 mL
B. 48.5 mL
C. 11 mL
Shape of liquid in a cylinder
A liquid in a cylinder tends to show a curved shape due to adhesion.
Hence, to get an accurate measurement, we must take the reading at the lower meniscus (i.e under the curve shape of the liquid)
A. How to determine the volume of the cylinder
From the diagram given, we can see that the lower meniscus (i.e under the curve) is 48.9 mL since 10 lines exist between 48 and 49. Thus, the volume of the liquid is 48.9 mL
B. How to determine the volume of the cylinder
From the diagram given, we can see that the lower meniscus (i.e under the curve) is 48.5 mL since 10 lines exist between 48 and 49. Thus, the volume of the liquid is 48.5 mL
C. How to determine the volume of the cylinder
From the diagram given, we can see that the lower meniscus (i.e under the curve) is 11 mL since 5 lines exist between 10 and 15. Thus, the volume of the liquid is 11 mL
