10-1.Thermometry, Thermal Expansion and Calorimetry
medium
If on heating liquid through $80°C$, the mass expelled is $(1/100)^{th}$ of mass still remaining, the coefficient of apparent expansion of liquid is
A
$1.25 \times 10^{-4}{°C^{-1}}$
B
$12.5 \times 10^{-4}{°C^{-1}}$
C
$1.25 \times 10^{-5}{°C^{-1}}$
D
None of these
Solution
(a) ${\gamma _{{\rm{app}}{\rm{.}}}} = \frac{{{\rm{Mass expelled}}}}{{{\rm{Mass remained}} \times {\rm{ }}\Delta T}}$
$ = \frac{{x/100}}{{x \times 80}} = \frac{1}{{8000}} = 1.25 \times {10^{ – 4}}{°C^{-1}}$
