This guide introduces graduated cylinders, essential tools in science for measuring liquid volume. A graduated cylinder is a cylindrical container with two parallel bases connected by a curved surface, typically marked with evenly spaced lines (graduations) to indicate the volume of liquid within. We’ll explore what a cylinder is, how to read measurements accurately by observing the meniscus, and the units of volume used in science, such as liters and milliliters. This resource is perfect for students at Norwood Elementary and science enthusiasts alike.

Units Of Volume SI- the liter 1 liter = 1,000 cubic centimeters
Units Of Volume Divide 1 liter into 1,000 equal portions Each portion = 1/1,000 liter Metric prefix 1/1,000 = milli 1 milliliter = 1 ml
