Question

Identify the correct statements from the following:

• A. The apparent expansion of liquid depends on the expansion of the material of the container.
• B. The real expansion of the liquid depends on the density of the liquid.
• C. The expansion of liquid with respect to the container is called the apparent expansion.
• D. The expansion of water is uniform.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

The correct options are
A The apparent expansion of liquid depends on the expansion of the material of the container.
B The real expansion of the liquid depends on the density of the liquid.
C The expansion of liquid with respect to the container is called the apparent expansion.

The expansion of liquid with respect to the container is called the apparent expansion. As the apparent expansion is with respect to the container, it depends on the expansion of the material of the container.

Real expansion depends on the density of the liquid. The real expansion of liquid is always more than the apparent expansion of the liquid.
