Conclusion of calibration of volumetric Glassware

The use of calibrated volumetric glassware is very important in a chemical laboratory in order to ensure that any volumes measured are known with a certain degree of accuracy. Beakers and graduated cylinders are generally calibrated to contain the liquids while most pipettes and burettes are calibrated to deliver the liquids. Volumetric glassware is calibrated at a specific temperature, but generally used to deliver or contain volumes at a different temperature. So there is variances in volumetric measurement.
