Chapter 19 Problem 56

Question

The density of gasoline is 730 kg/m3 at 08C. Its average coefficient of volume expansion is 9.60 3 1024 (8C)21. Assume 1.00 gal of gasoline occupies 0.003 80 m3. How many extra kilograms of gasoline would you receive if you bought 10.0gal of gasoline at 08C rather than at 20.08C from a pump that is not temperature compensated?

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 19 problem number 56 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The density of gasoline is 730 kg/m3 at 08C. Its average coefficient of volume expansion is 9.60 3 1024 (8C)21. Assume 1.00 gal of gasoline occupies 0.003 80 m3. How many extra kilograms of gasoline would you receive if you bought 10.0gal of gasoline at 08C rather than at 20.08C from a pump that is not temperature compensated?
From the textbook chapter Temperature you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
