It is observed that 55.50 mL of water at 20°C completely fills a container to the brim. When the container and the water are heated to 60°C, 0.35 g of water is lost. (a) What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the container? (b) What is the most likely material of the container? Density of water at 60°C is 0.98324 g/mL.

    Volume of water that spilled out

    = (0.35) * (0.98324) mL

    = 0.3441 mL

    Thus, the original volume

    55.50 mL increased to

    55.8441 mL

    V (t) = Vo [1 + γ (60.0 - 18.7) ]

    => coefficient of volume expansion,

    γ = (Vt - Vo) / [Vo * 41.3]

    = (0.3441) / [ (55.50) (41.3)

    = 1.5012 x10^-4
