प्रश्न
Explain with the help of formulae the expansion coefficients of liquid and gas.
उत्तर
The formula for the liquid expansion of gas is
V2 = V1 (1 + β Δ T)
or
β = `(("V"_2 - "V"_1)/"V"_1) 1/ (triangle "T")`
From the above formula, we can say that
- the volumetric expansion coefficient of a liquid (β) is defined as the fractional change in the volume of the liquid per degree Celsius (or Kelvin) change in temperature.
- the volumetric expansion coefficient of a liquid (β) is defined as the fractional change in the volume of the gas per degree Celcius (or kelvin) change in temperature at constant pressure. So, β is the constant pressure volumetric expansion coefficient in case of gas.
