Question

making a precise measurement, what is the volume of the liquid below * 1 point
30
20
10
30 ml
29 ml
28 ml
28.11 ml
27.9 ml

Explanation:

Step1: Observe the meniscus

The meniscus of the liquid is at the 28 - 29 mL mark. The scale on the graduated cylinder has markings every 1 mL.

Step2: Estimate the value

Since the meniscus is just below the 29 - mL mark and above the 28 - mL mark, and estimating to one - decimal place for a typical graduated cylinder reading, the volume is 28.9 mL. But among the given options, the closest correct value considering the precision of reading a graduated cylinder is 28 mL.

Answer:

28 mL
