    The value of coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is \[5\times {{10}^{-4}}{{K}^{-1}}\]. The fractional change in the density of glycerin for a rise of \[{{40}^{\text{o}}}C\] in its temperature is                                                                    

    A)  0.015              

    B)  0.020   

    C)  0.025              

    D)  0.010

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given, the value of coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is\[5\times {{10}^{-4}}{{K}^{-1}}\]. As, original density of glycerin, \[\rho ={{\rho }_{0}}(1+Y\Delta T)\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\rho -{{\rho }_{0}}={{\rho }_{0}}Y\Delta T\] Thus, fractional change in the density of glycerine for a rise of \[{{40}^{\text{o}}}C\] in its temperature, \[\frac{\rho -{{\rho }_{0}}}{{{\rho }_{0}}}=Y\Delta T=5\times {{10}^{-4}}\times 40=200-\times {{10}^{-4}}=0.020\]
