Isabelle pour 158cm3 of glycerin, at a temperature of -12 oC, into a graduated cylinder initially at 19 oC, filling it to the very top. The cylinder is made of glass with a specific heat of 840 J/kg-K and a coefficient of volume expansion of 1.2 x10−5K-1 ; its mass is 0.110kg. The mass of the glycerin is 0.0873 kg. (a) What will be the final temperature of the glycerin, once thermal equilibrium is reached? (b) How much glycerin will overflow the cylinder before thermal equilibrium is reached?
