Question

The volume of a liquid is 830m'at 30°C and it is 850m'at 90°C. The

coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid is​

Answer 1

4.02×10⁻⁴ K⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

γ = (v₂-v₁)/(v₁Δt)................. Equation 1

Where γ = coefficient of volume expansion, v₂ = Final volume, v₁ = initial volume, Δt = change in temperature.

From the question,

Given: v₂ = 850 m³, v₁ = 830 m³, Δt = (90-30) = 60°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

γ = (850-830)/(830×60)

γ = 20/(830×60)

γ = 4.02×10⁻⁴ K⁻¹
