Expansion of Liquids

(AFA) The figure below shows a container that is 95% volume occupied by a liquid, initially at 10 ° C

Since the linear expansion coefficients of the container and volume of the liquid, respectively, equal to 1.7. 10^-5 ° C^-1 and 5.8. 10^-4 ° C^-1, it can be said that the


a) container is completely full at 110 ° C.


b) empty part of the volume does not change.


c) the container will be with 98% of its volume occupied at 110 ° C.


d) container will only be completely filled to 220 ° C.



Desde já, obrigado!

Oi!

 

One difficulty is that the expansion coefficient relates to the volume with liquids but to linear dimensions with solids.

 

For the rest, you can take an arbitrary container volume at 10°C, compute the liquid volume and the container volume at 110°C and compare.

 

De nada!
