What should be the volume of mercury in a glass flask of volume 150 cm^(3), so that the volume of air in the flask may remain same at all temperatures ? (The coefficient of linear expansion of glass is 8 x 10^(-6)//^(@)C and the coefficient of real expansion of mercury = 18 xx 10^(-5)//^(@)C)

What should be the volume of mercury in a glass flask of volume 150 cm

1.	What should be the volume of mercury in a glass flask of volume 150 cm^(3), so that the volume of air in the flask may remain same at all temperatures ? (The coefficient of linear expansion of glass is 8 x 10^(-6)//^(@)C and the coefficient of real expansion of mercury = 18 xx 10^(-5)//^(@)C)
Answer» SOLUTION :`20 CM^(3)`
