graduated cylinder
Lab volume measurer
A graduated cylinder is a tall, narrow container marked with horizontal lines indicating volume, used in laboratories to measure liquids precisely.
The cylindrical shape and fine gradations allow more accurate measurement than beakers or flasks: Pour exactly 50 milliliters into the graduated cylinder.
