The following laboratory glass wares are used for measuring liquid, which is best to use in getting density?The following laboratory glass wares are used for measuring liquid, which is best to use in getting density?
A
beaker
B
graduated cylinder
C
test tube
D
volumetric flask
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The pieces of volumetric glassware found in the chemistry laboratory are beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks, graduated cylinders, pipets, burets and volumetric flasks.

Detailed explanation-2: -Be sure to include one point of estimation in your reading (see sample reading shown on the left). Volume measurement with a graduated cylinder is practically used to get the volume of irregularly shaped objects where the volume is found by water displacement.

Detailed explanation-3: -Liquid volume is usually measured using either a graduated cylinder or a buret. As the name implies, a graduated cylinder is a cylindrical glass or plastic tube sealed at one end, with a calibrated scale etched (or marked) on the outside wall.

Detailed explanation-4: -The volumetric flask is the most accurate, but it only measures 1 volume-in this case, 100mL. If you need to measure other volumes besides those on volumetric flasks, then the graduated cylinder is the best tool.
