When a mercury thermometer is warmed, the mercury level momentarily goes down before it rises. Can you give an explanation for this?
On the sea bottom at the Galapagos Rift, water heated to 350 °C gushes out of hydrothermal
vents at a depth of 3000 m. Will this water boil or remain liquid at this depth? Assume the
enthalpy of vaporization for water to be independent of pressure and temperature.

- Most automobiles have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid than may overflow when 1he engine is hot. A radiator is made of copper and is filled to its 16.0L capacity when at 10.0C. What volume of radiator fluid will overflow when the radiator and fluid reach their 95.0C operating temperature, given that the fluid’s volume coefficient of expansion is =400106/C ?
