Chapter 17, Problem 17P
(II) It is observed that 55.50 mL of water at 20°C completely fills a container to the brim. When the container and the water are heated to 60°C, 0.35 g of water is lost. (a) What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the container? (b) What is the most likely material of the container? Density of water at 60°C is 0.98324 g/mL.
