What is the uncertainty of a 50 ml graduated cylinder


Asked by admin @ in Chemistry viewed by 270 People


Volume measurements will be made using a 25-ml graduated cylinder, which has major scale divisions marked every 2 ml and minor scale divisions every 0.2 ml. what is the estimated uncertainty in the volume measurements

Answered by admin @



Actually, the
uncertainty point is when we have to estimate one place smaller than what the
graduated cylinder can accurately read. So in this case, the smallest that we
can accurately read is given by the minor marks of 0.2 mL. So if it is in
between two minor marks we can only estimate the number, therefore the
uncertainty is +/- 0.1ml.
