Question 14 • IS - O - 3490 - The Living Earth B CP Online

Dani wants to measure the volume of a pebble. Which tool will give the most accurate measurement?

Answer
A
a ruler
B
a tablespoon
C
a measuring cup
D
a graduated cylinder

Explanation

A pebble has an irregular shape, so its volume is best measured by putting it in water and measuring how much the water level rises. A graduated cylinder measures small changes in liquid volume more precisely than a measuring cup or tablespoon. Therefore, the graduated cylinder is the most accurate tool.
