Question

An aluminum can is filled to the brim with a liquid. The can and the liquid are heated so their temperatures change by the same amount. The can’s initial volume at 1.8 oC is 3.5 x 10-4 m3. The coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is 69 x 10-6 (Co)-1. When the can and the liquid are heated to 100.7 oC, 3.6 x 10-6 m3 of liquid spills over. What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid in terms of 10-4 (Co)-1?

Step 1

Given: Initial volume of aluminum can, V_initial = 3.5 x 10^-4 m^3 Coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum, α_aluminum = 69 x 10^-6 (Co)^-1 Change in temperature, ΔT = 100.7 oC - 1.8 oC = 98.9 oC Using the formula for volume expansion: ΔV = V_initial * Show more…
