All liquids contract when cooled. With such a big difference in temperature it contracted to 117 liters. The colder a fluid the more compact the molecules are. They don't move around as much so the fluid contracts.

What is the definitions of liquid volume?

The liquid volume of an object is the amount of liquid (like water or oil) that the object (like a glass) can hold when completely filled.


How does a volume gas thermometer owrk?

Gases expand or contract when heated or cooled. The main part of the thermometer has a 'large' bulb containing a gas connected by a hose to a tube filled with liquid. The expansion or contraction of the gas causes the liquid level to move this indicates the temperature.

Were non-waxed taper wicks invented in colonial time?

A glass beaker is completely filled with 456 c.c. of a liquid when both the glass beaker and the liquid are at a temperature of 33.3oC. If the glass beaker and the liquid are cooled to 5oC. what additional volume of liquid (in c.c.) can be put into the beaker?Volumetric coefficient of expansion of liquid is 0.000109K-1 and the coefficient of linear expansion for glass is 3.2X10-6K-1


How the density of a regular and irregular objects determined?

Weigh the object. Determine the volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density. To get the volume of an irregular shaped object can be challenging especially if there are cavities (holes) in it. submersion in a liquid or powder of known volume might be possible. Measure the difference in the volume of the liquid and the liquid + the object (making sure the object is entirely below the surface of the liquid and that any cavities are filled).


How do you calculate density of cyclohexen?

cyclohexane is a liquid so it may be filled in a flask of known volume and may be weighted out ... the ratio of mass and volume represents the density....


How and why would you use a beaker to measure the density of an object?

A beaker filled with liquid can be used to measure the volume of a non-soluble solid, or of a liquid. If the mass of the solid or liquid sample has been previously determined, the liquid (usually water) displaced from a filled beaker will provide the volume of the sample. Mass divided by volume gives the density. One of the early uses of the process was to identify counterfeit gold coins. In order to weigh the same as real gold coins, fakes would have to be thicker, and therefore have greater volume.


Does the volume get larger when a solid is cooled?

no it expands with heat, it shrinks when cooled


A mass of an empty density bottle is 30gwhen filled with a liquid the mass of the bottle and the liquid is 40g .on heating the filled bottle through 40 degree celscius , the mass reduces to 38g.calculate the apparent cubic expansivity of the liquid?

mass of empty density bottle=30g mass of bottle+liquid=40g heating of the filled bottle=40degree c mass reduced when heated=3g apparent cubic expansivity=? volume of liquid expelled volume of liquid*temp rise remains 40-38 [38-30]*40 2 840=6.2510^-3k^-1

What happens to a liquid mass and volume when it is heated or cooled?

Really? Do you not pay attention the slightest bit. This is common sense here. Well, mass of an object never changes. If heated, it would evaporate. If cooled, it would freeze. The volume also stays the same, cause you're not adding or taking any away.


Is water the only substance that increases in volume when cooled?

No, water is not the only substance that increase in volume when it changes state from liquid to solid. The element gallium is less dense as a solid than as a liquid, to name one. Generally speaking, solids are usually more dense than their liquid forms, but not always. and some other liquids also do
