Why do you use a graduated cylinder when measuring for the unit dose cups instead of simply filling them from the bottle?

Answer:using a beaker you donn't know exactly the volume you use because the superficial area is wideand a little variation of height can mean a great difference in the volume you have. Than the sign of capacity on the beaker is put only approximately

The graduated cylinder, having a less superficial area have a less difference in volum also if you a little mistake in filling the instrument, then generally a misure is more accurate
