A student cramming for their final exam heats up 0.500 L of cold coffee in a Pyrex carafe. The carafe is filled to the brim with the coffee and both are initially at 20.0°. Once the temperature of both the coffee and the carafe have risen to 95.0°C, how much coffee has spilled out? Given that the carafe is an isotropic solid, and that the coefficient of linear thermal expansion for Pyrex is: 3.3 x 106 K-¹ and that the coefficient of volume thermal expansion for water (coffee) is 207 x 106 K.¹.
