Question

Identify the correct statements from the following:

a) The apparent expansion of liquid depends on the expansion of material of the container b)The real expansion of the liquids depends on the density of the liquid.

c)The expansion of liquid with respect to the container is called the apparent expansion.

• A. Only a & b are true
• B. Only b & c are true
• C. a,b & c are true
• D. Only a & c are true

Answer 1

The correct option is D Only a & c are true

Real expansion is proportional to the initial volume of the liquid taken and the change in temperature given by $V\gamma \Delta T$. It does not depend on the density of the liquid.
