Text Appearing Before Image: g only a fixed quantity and those meas^uring varying quantities.Of the latter kind, thetwo commonly used inlaboratory work are grad-uated cylinders and bu-rettes. The graduatedcylinder, often calledsimply a graduate, is aglass cylinder furnishedwith a foot so as to standupright, and with a scalefor reading volumes, usu-ally in cubic centimeters.The scale is engraved onthe glass, and arranged asin Fig. 45. There is along numbered line forevery 10 cu. cm., as a a.Between these are shorterlines, marking cubic centi-meters, as c c; and betweenthese, in turn, still shorterones, marking half cu. cm.Such a scale is said to readto 0.5 c.c. There are usu-ally two scales, one having! J the 0 at the top and the fig. 45. other at the bottom, the former used in measuring thevolumes of liquids poured out of the cylinder, the latterin measuring the volumes of liquids poured in. 68 MENSURATION. On looking horizontally at a graduate containing aliquid, the surface of the liquid appears as a dark band, Text Appearing After Image: usually curving down in the centre, as in Fig. 46. Thiscurve is called the meniscus, and the line correspond-ing to the lowest point of the meniscus is taken as thelevel of the liquid. The cylinder must be placed on afirm horizontal surface, and the eye brought to the levelof the meniscus and directly opposite the scale. In Fig.47 a represents the correct method of reading, b and cthe incorrect, b would give a reading greater and c lessthan the true one. Errors caused by failure to read ascale with the lrne of sight in the proper position are saidto be due to Parallax. The following method will avoidsuch errors: Take a piece of stiff paper about 1J X 4 inches, beingsure that the upper edge is clean and straight. Wrapitaround the cylinder, and allow a portion to project, asshown in Fig. 48. Grasp the projecting portion with thefinger and thumb, taking care that the upper and lower DETERMINATION OF VOLUMES. are even with each other.
