What is the distance from one milliliter to another on a graduated cylinder?
For example, if you measured the distance (with a ruler) from the 1 ml marking on a graduated cylinder to the 2 ml marking, what would be the distance between the two?
I thought it would be 1 cm.
I need to know this because I did a lab where I measured the volume of trapped air in cm. So if the height of trapped air was 5.4 cm, would that make the volume of it 5.4 ml?

It depends on the radius of the cylinder.
