Question

Post Lab Questions:

1. If you need to measure the volume of a 1.0 mL sample of solution would a 100 mL
graduated cylinder be appropriate? Why or why not?

Answer 1

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Graduated cylinder is an instrument in chemistry used to measure approximate volumes of liquids. But you can't make volumetric analysis with these instruments because are not accurate as enough.

In chemistry, the measure of a sample must be accurate because you work with a sample to know which sample is and which is its purity. For that reaseon, graduated cylinder in not appropriate to measure 1.0mL of a sample. You must use PIPETTES.
