What is the difference between graduated cylinders and measuring cylinders?
Graduated cylinders are designed for precise measurement of liquids and have graduated markings on the surface. Measuring cylinders, on the other hand, have a larger capacity and are used for measuring larger volumes.

Yes, plastic lab cylinders are a suitable alternative to glass cylinders. They are lightweight, shatter-resistant, and offer excellent chemical resistance. However, it's important to ensure the compatibility of the plastic with the substances being measured.
How do I clean lab cylinders?
To clean lab cylinders, rinse them with water to remove any residue. If necessary, use a mild detergent or laboratory-specific cleaning agents. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can damage the cylinders.
What precautions should I take while using gas cylinders?
