Cylinders

Measuring and Transferring Liquids: Glass cylinders, often referred to as graduated cylinders or measuring cylinders, are used for accurate measurement and transfer of liquids. They come in various sizes and have volume markings along the side, allowing researchers to measure specific volumes of liquids with precision.

Mixing and Dilution: Glass cylinders are also useful for mixing and diluting solutions. They provide a clear and transparent container to observe and control the mixing process. Graduated cylinders with wide bases are preferred for this purpose to ensure stability during stirring or shaking.

Filtration: Glass cylinders are employed in filtration processes, such as gravity filtration or vacuum filtration. They can hold the filter paper or act as a collection vessel for the filtrate, allowing for separation of solids from liquids.
