Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that a graduated cylinder is a common piece of laboratory glassware used for measuring liquids.
Recall that volume is the amount of space that a substance (usually a liquid) occupies, which is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L).
Recognize that mass is measured using a balance or scale, temperature is measured with a thermometer, and pressure is measured with a manometer or barometer.
Note that the graduated cylinder has markings along its side that allow you to read the volume of liquid inside it accurately.
Conclude that the graduated cylinder is specifically designed to measure the volume of liquids in a laboratory setting.
