Answer:
0.000182 /°C
Explanation:
Thermal volumetric expansion is:
ΔV = γ ΔT V,
where ΔV is the change in volume,
γ is the cubic expansion of coefficient,
ΔT is he change in temperature,
and V is the original volume.
Solving for γ:
γ = ΔV / (ΔT V)
Given ΔV = 0.182 cm³, ΔT = 100°C, and V = 10 cm³:
γ = (0.182 cm³) / (100°C × 10 cm³)
γ = 1.82×10⁻⁴ /°C
γ = 0.000182 /°C
