1 Reading the Graduated Cylinder And All about the Meniscus

2 Reading the Graduated Cylinder Liquids in glass containers curve at the edges This curve is called the MENISCUS

3 Reading the Graduated Cylinder Your eye should be level with the top of the liquid You should read to the bottom of the MENISCUS

4 Reading the Graduated Cylinder What is this reading? 18.0 mL

5 Reading the Graduated Cylinder What is this reading? 36.5 mL

6 Reading the Graduated Cylinder What is this reading? 42.9 mL

7 Reading the Graduated Cylinder What is this reading? 47.0 mL

8 Reading the Graduated Cylinder What is this reading? 61.2 mL

9 You will need to draw a meniscus on each cylinder on your homework paper.
