The cubic expansivity of a certain gas at constant pressure is \(\frac{1}{273} k^{-1}\). If a given mass of the gas is held at constant pressure and its volume at 0oC is 273m3, determine the volume of the gas at 273oC.
- A. 273m3
- B. 546m3
- C. 8193
- D. 10923
Correct Answer: B. 546m3
Explanation
\(V_2 = V_1(B\theta + 1) = 273 (\frac{1}{373} \times 273 + 1)\)
= 546m3
