Why wouldn’t you use a beaker to measure an exact volume?(1 point) Responses The volume of liquid in a beaker may change

1 answer

Using a beaker to measure an exact volume is not recommended because beakers typically have graduations that are not very precise, and the meniscus (the curve in the surface of the liquid) can be difficult to read accurately. This can lead to measurement errors, making beakers better suited for approximations rather than precise volume measurements. For exact volume measurements, graduated cylinders or volumetric flasks are preferred due to their higher precision.
