Question

what volume is indicated on each of these graduated cylinders? the unit of volume of is ml.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the scale - reading principle

Read the bottom of the meniscus.

Step2: Analyze the first graduated - cylinder

For the first one (top - left), the scale interval is 1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is between 56 and 57 mL, closer to 56.5 mL. So the volume is 56.5 mL.

Step3: Analyze the second graduated - cylinder

For the second one (top - middle), the scale interval is 0.1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is at 4.2 mL.

Step4: Analyze the third graduated - cylinder

For the third one (top - right), the scale interval is 1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is at 24 mL.

Step5: Analyze the fourth graduated - cylinder

For the fourth one (bottom - left), the scale interval is 1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is at 17 mL.

Step6: Analyze the fifth graduated - cylinder

For the fifth one (bottom - middle), the scale interval is 1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is at 77 mL.

Step7: Analyze the sixth graduated - cylinder

For the sixth one (bottom - right), the scale interval is 0.1 mL. The bottom of the meniscus is at 4.7 mL.

Answer:

a) 56.5 mL
b) 4.2 mL
c) 24 mL
d) 17 mL
e) 77 mL
f) 4.7 mL
