Explanation:

Given

mass of the mercury = 13.6gm

coefficient of cubical expansion α = 1.82×10−4∘C−1

consider

Volume = 1cm3

When mercury is heated to 500C then change in the mass

ΔV = V α ΔT

ΔV = 1 × 1.82×10−4 × 50

ΔV = 9.1×10−3 cm3

New volume can be calculated as

V1 = V + ΔV

V1 = 1 + 9.1×10−3

V1 = 1.0091 cm3

New volume can be calculated as

ρ = m/V1

ρ = 13.6/1.0091

ρ = 13.48 gcm-3
