The coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is $49 \times 10^{-5} \;K ^{-1} .$ What is the fractional change in its density for a $30\,^{\circ} C$ rise in temperature?
Coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin, $\alpha_V=49 \times 10^{-5} K ^{-1}$
Rise in temperature, $\Delta T=30^{\circ} C$
Fractional change in its volume $=\frac{\Delta V}{V}$ This change is related with the change in temperature as:
$\frac{\Delta V}{V}=\alpha_{V} \Delta T$
$V_{T_{2}}-V_{T_{1}}=V_{T_{1}} \alpha_{V} \Delta T$
$\frac{m}{\rho_{T_{2}}}-\frac{m}{\rho_{T_{1}}}=\frac{m}{\rho_{T_{1}}} \alpha_{V} \Delta T$
Where, $m=$ Mass of glycerine
$\rho_{T_{1}}=$ Initial density at $T_{1}$
$\rho_{r_{1}}=$ Final density at $T_{2}$
$\frac{\rho_{T_{1}}-\rho_{T_{2}}}{\rho_{T_{2}}}=\alpha_{V} \Delta T$
Where,
$\frac{\rho_{T_{1}}-\rho_{T_{2}}}{\rho_{T_{2}}}=$ Fractional change in density
$\therefore$ Fractional change in the density of glycerin $=49 \times 10^{-5} \times 30=1.47 \times 10^{-2}$

A glass flask contains some mercury at room temperature. It is found that at different temperatures the volume of air inside the flask remains the same. If the volume of mercury in the flask is $300 \,\,cm^3$, then volume of the flask is ........ $cm^3$. (given that coefficient of volume expansion of mercury and coefficient of linear expansion of glass are $1.8 × 10^{-4} (^o C)^{-1}$ and $9 × 10^{-6} (^o C)^{-1}$ respectively)
