measuring cylinder
Tall liquid measurer
A measuring cylinder is a tall, narrow container marked with graduated lines, used in laboratories to measure liquid volumes.
The cylinder shape allows precise readings—you measure at the bottom of the liquid's curved surface (the meniscus).
Also called a graduated cylinder.
She poured exactly 50 milliliters into the measuring cylinder.
