Question

Among the following, the liquid having negative coefficient of cubical expansion between 273K
and 277K. [ ]
a) ethylene glycol b) mercury c) water d) none

Answer 1

Answer:

water

Explanation:

Because when the water gets cooled it becomes ice

Answer 2

The negative coefficient of the cubical is due to the expansion of the liquid called as the volume expansion that is water

• The  water expansion, can be changed with the range of the temperature and the expansion of liquid.
• The water expansion in the anomalous  expansion of water is in the range of the 0 to 4 C
• Or in kelvin is 273 K to 277 K, as in it water converts to solid in the form of ice from liquid state.
