An 1.000 L aluminum pot is filled to the brim with water and heated from 10.0°C to the boiling point of water (Kraft Dinner, anyone?). The linear coefficient of expansion for aluminum is 24 x 10-6 (°C)*1 and the volume expansion coefficient for water is 210 x 10-6 (°C)*1. How much water spills from the pot due to the differences in thermal volume expansion?

Question
An 1.000 L aluminum pot is filled to the brim with
water and heated from 10.0°C to the boiling
point of water (Kraft Dinner, anyone?). The linear
coefficient of expansion for aluminum is 24 × 10-6
(°C) 1 and the volume expansion coefficient for
water is 210 x 10-6 (°C)-1. How much water spills
from the pot due to the differences in thermal
volume expansion?
O A) 2 mL
B) 18 mL
C)
no water spills out
O D) 12 mL
