Question
suppose you have a graduated cylinder with a calibration of 1 ml. how precisely should you measure the volume? to the nearest 0.01 milliliter to the nearest 10 milliliter to the nearest 1 milliliter to the nearest 0.1 milliliter
Step1: Understand instrument precision
The precision of a measuring instrument is determined by its smallest calibration. A graduated - cylinder with a calibration of 1 mL can measure volumes to the nearest 1 mL. We cannot measure more precisely than the smallest marked division on the instrument without additional equipment or techniques.
