An aluminium container is filled with glycerine. Glycerine has a volume expansion coefficient of 4.85 × 10-4 (°C)-1. Aluminium has a linear expansion coefficient of 2.40 x 10-5 (°C)-1. At a temperature of 20.00°C the scale on the side of the aluminium container reads that there are 424.5 mL of glycerine in the container. At 105.5°C what volume of glycerine will the scale read?
