The curved surface of a liquid in a container is called the meniscus. The volume of the liquid should always be read using the bottom of the meniscus.Explain why someone who measures using the top of the meniscus would produce biased results.

When reading a meniscus on a piece of lab glassware, what is the correct technique?Group of answer choicesLook at the where the meniscus meets the sidewall of the glassware, and read the volume from that point.Take an average of the volumes you read from the sidewall (where the meniscus meets the glass) and the middle of the meniscus.Look at the curved part in the middle of the meniscus, and read at the lowest point of the curve.
