Chapter 18, Problem 15P
A volumetric flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0°C. It is filled to the 100-mL mark with 35.0°C acetone. After the flask is filled, the acetone cools and the flask warms so that the combination of acetone and flask reaches a uniform temperature of 32.0°C. The combination is then cooled back to 20.0°C. (a) What is the volume of the acetone when it cools to 20.0°C? (b) At the temperature of 32.0°C, does the level of acetone lie above or below the 100-mL mark on the flask? Explain.

A volumetric flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0°C. It is filled to the 235-mL mark with 37.0°C glycerin. After the flask is filled, the glycerin cools and the flask warms so that the combination of glycerin and flask reaches a uniform temperature of 32.0°C. The combination is then cooled back to 20.0°C. (The average volume expansion coefficient of glycerin is 4.85 10-4(°C)−1.)
(a) What is the volume of the glycerin when it cools to 20.0°C?
Early in the morning when the temperature is 5°C, gasoline is
pumped into a car's 51 L steel gas tank until it is filled to the top.
Later in the day the temperature rises to 25°C.
Since the volume of gasoline increases more for a given temperature increase
than the volume of the steel tank, gasoline will spill out of the tank.
How much gasoline spills out in this case?
