Why Burette Is More Accurate?

Burette is similar like graduated cylinder and is easier to measure a required volume of liquid through graduations. ... But, it has large meniscus and hence its accuracy and precision is less in measuring liquids.

What is more accurate than a burette?

Graduated cylinders, beakers, volumetric pipets, burets and volumetric flasks are five kinds of glassware often used to measure out specific volumes. Volumetric pipets, flasks and burets are the most accurate; the glassware makers calibrate these to a high level of accuracy.

Is the burette more accurate?

Compared to a volumetric pipette, a burette has similar precision if used to its full capacity, but as it is usually used to deliver less than its full capacity, a burette is slightly less precise than a pipette.
