Question

What would you use to most accurately measure out 10 mL of water?

A.) a 10 mL pipette.
B.) a 100 mL graduated cylinder.
C.) a 1 mL pipette (used 10 times in a row).
D.) a 100 mL beaker.
E.) all of these would be equally accurate.

Answer 1

I think the best answer among the choices presented is option A. Using a 10mL pipette to measure out 10mL of water would be the most accurate method. In this case, in order to be accurate you lessen the possibility of making errors. A graduated cylinder and a beaker has large errors on it than using pipette.
