Question

The Chemist has available four different sizes (based on maximum volume) of graduated cylinders. If the Chemist desires to measure 8 mL, which of the following cylinders is the best choice (based on the criteria given in the class handout)? Question 1 options:

A) 25 mL b)50 mL C)100 mL D)10 mL

Answer 1

The correct option is: D)10 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

A measuring cylinder or a graduated cylinder, is a narrow cylinder-shaped, chemical resistant, transparent equipment which is used to measure the volume of a given liquid.

Since the 10 mL graduated cylinder has 0.1 mL grading divisions. Therefore, a 10 mL graduated cylinder will precisely measure 8 mL liquid.
