Graduated Cylinders

Where is the number 7?

• We know that 7 is between 6 and 8, so it is the longer line between 6 and 8.
• We don't know where 7 is.
• This cylinder cannot measure 7 because the marking is not there.
• 7 is not an important number so it was left off of this piece of lab glassware

Where do we read the level of liquid?

• The highest point the liquid touches
• The bottom of the meniscus
• Half way between, we make an educated guess and round it
• Somewhere about there
