Objectives
Students will able to:
1. Measure the volume and the temperature of a liquid
2. Explain what happens when matter changes state
Getting Started
Measuring volume:
• To measure the volume of a liquid,
we use a measuring cylinder.
• The liquid forms a curve at the top.
This is called the meniscus.
• Measure the volume from the
bottom of the meniscus.
• Make sure that our eye is level with
the meniscus.
Measuring temperature:
• To measure the temperature you use a
thermometer.
• Read the temperature from the scale
• Make sure that our eye is level with the
top of the liquid in the thermometer
1 Look at the diagram. What is the volume of water in
each measuring cylinder?
28cm3 54 cm3 82 cm3
2 What are the temperatures shown on the thermometers?
A 24°C B 15°C C 29°C
