A 1000.0 mL glass beaker is filled to the top with water. The filled beaker is placed onto a heating plate and heated from 20.000 °C to 85.000 °C. A total of 13.25 mL overflows. What is the volume expansion coefficient of the glass? Enter your answer in units of °C-1. You can neglect the thickness of the beaker walls, and assume any material parameters you lookup in your textbook are exact, i.e., have an infinite number of significant figures.

The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170.00 m on a day when the temperature is 35.0 . What will its height be on a day when the temperature falls to -10.0 ? Although the monument is made of limestone, assume that its coefficient of thermal expansion is the same as that of marble. Give your answer to five significant figures.
A hollow aluminum cylinder 20.0 cm deep has an internal capacity of 2.000 L at 20.0C. It is completely filled with turpentine at 20.0C. The turpentine and the aluminum cylinder are then slowly warmed together to 80.0C. (a) How much turpentine overflows? (b) What is the volume of the turpentine remaining in the cylinder at 80.0C? (c) If the combination with this amount of turpentine is then cooled back to 20.0C, how far below the cylinders rim does the turpentines surface recede?
(a) If a 500mL glass beaker is filled to the brim with ethyl alcohol at a temperature of 500C, how much will overflow when its temperature reaches 210C ? (b) How much less water would overflow under the same conditions?
In 1986, a gargantuan iceberg broke away from the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. It was approximately a rectangle 160 km long, 40.0 km wide, and 250 m thick. (a) What is the mass of this iceberg, given that the density of ice is 917kg/m3 ? (b) How much heat transfer (in joules) is needed to melt it? (c) How many years would it take sunlight alone to melt ice this thick, if the ice absorbs an average of 100W/m2, 12.00 h per day?
