Question:

An aluminum can is filled to the brim with a liquid. The can and the liquid are heated so their temperatures change by the same amount. The can’s initial volume at 5 °C is 3.5 × 10−4 m3. The coefficient of volume expansion for aluminum is 69 × 10−6 (C°)−1. When the can and the liquid are heated to 78 °C, 3.6 × 10−6 m3 of liquid spills over. What is the coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid?
