A glass flask whose volume is 1000.00 cm³ at 0.0°C is completely filled with mercury at this temperature. When flask and mercury are warmed to 25.0°C, 8.95 cm³ of mercury overflow. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 18.0 x10-5 K-1. If the flask and mercury are then cooled back down to 0.0°C, what volume of mercury (in units of cm^3) will need to be added to refill the flask? (3 sig. figs.)
