Burette, Pipette & Measuring Cylinder

Burette:
A burette, or buret, is a uniform-bore glass tube with fine gradations and a stopcock at the bottom, used especially in laboratory procedures for accurate fluid dispensing and measurement.
The buret is commonly used in titrations to measure precisely how much liquid is used.
Pipette:
Pipettes are devices that allow the users to extract or deliver small amounts of a liquid. Pipettes come in a variety of designs with only two shown. Some are graduated to deliver exact quantities, but most allow for a "drop at a time" delivery.
Measuring Cylinder:
A measuring cylinder is a piece of laboratory equipment used to accurately measure the volume of an object. Water displacement can be used to find out the volume of an object. Measuring cylinders are generally more accurate and precise for this purpose than flasks and beakers.
