burets are specialized pieces of glass used for titrations to determine precise amounts of solutions that have been dispensed. as a result, they read from the top down, with 0 ml at the top and the maximum volume at the bottom. lets get some practice reading burets before the lab period. two burets side by side titration volume for this exercise, estimate the volumes in the buret to determine the volume of liquid dispensed. assume that the last digit of the volume is either a 5 or 0 so that you can line up with the expected answer :-)
