A student investigated the temperature change during a neutralisation reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solution.
They measured 50.0 cm3 of 1.0 mol dm-3 hydrochloric acid into a polystyrene cup, supported inside a glass beaker, and recorded its initial temperature.
The student then added 50.0 cm3 of 1.0 mol dm-3 sodium hydroxide solution, stirred the mixture, and recorded the maximum temperature reached.
State the name of a piece of apparatus that the student should use to measure 50.0 cm3 of the hydrochloric acid solution with high precision.
