Question
**Buret Reading Exercise**

**Question:**  
Assume that the buret below was previously filled to the 0.00 mL mark. What volume of reagent has been delivered? (Remember to estimate between the lines to get one more digit than can be read from the scale and include units!)

**Diagram Description:**  
The diagram represents a vertical view of a buret. The scale on the buret is marked in milliliters (mL), ranging from 0 to 2. The major marks indicate whole milliliters, while the minor marks represent 0.1 mL increments. The meniscus, or curved surface of the liquid, is at a point slightly above the 1.0 mL line and below the 1.1 mL line.

**Explanation for Reading the Buret:**

1. **Read from the Bottom of the Meniscus:** The bottom of the meniscus is slightly above the 1.0 mL line.
2. **Estimate the Fraction Between Marks:** The meniscus appears to be about 0.02 mL above 1.0 mL.
3. **Report the Reading:** The estimated volume delivered is approximately 1.02 mL.

For accurate measurement, consider the curvature of the meniscus and attempt to view it at eye level to avoid parallax error.
