Which method of measurement would be accurate but lack precision?
A. Measuring a volume of water by estimating the size of the
container
B. Measuring a volume of water using a graduated cylinder that can
be read to nearest mL
C. Measuring air temperature with a thermometer that has just been
taken out of hot water
D. Measuring air temperature with a thermometer that can be read to
the nearest degree and is calibrated to the correct temperature
reading the volume of water in a graduated cylinder which can be read to the nearest mL is accurate, it lacks precision due to the bottom meniscus formed.
the bottom meniscus may cause a wrong reading due to refraction of light
