Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the purpose of the question: it asks for a laboratory instrument used to measure changes in liquid volume with high accuracy.
Review the options given: Bunsen burner, Crucible, Graduated cylinder, and Filter paper.
Recall the function of each instrument: a Bunsen burner is used for heating, a Crucible is used for heating substances to very high temperatures, Filter paper is used for separating solids from liquids, and a Graduated cylinder is designed specifically to measure liquid volumes.
Identify that the Graduated cylinder has marked graduations along its length, allowing precise measurement of liquid volume changes.
Conclude that the Graduated cylinder is the correct instrument for accurately measuring changes in liquid volume.
