Using the following data, find the change in temperature at which wood will just sink in benzene.
Density of benzene at `0^(@)C=9xx10^(2)kgm^(-3)`,
Density of wood at `0^(@)C=8.8xx10^(2)kgm^(-3)`,
Cubical expansivity of benzene `=1.2xx10^(-3)K^(-1)`
Cubical expansivity of wood `=1.5xx10^(-4)K^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the subscript `1` and `2` denotes benzene and wood, respectively.
`:. (rho_(1))/(1+gamma_(1)DeltaT)=(rho_(2))/(1+gamma_(2)DeltaT)`
or `rho_(1)+rho_(1)gamma_(2)DeltaT=rho_(2)+rho_(2)gamma_(1)DeltaT`
or `DeltaT=(rho_(1)-rho_(2))/(rho_(2)gamma_(1)-rho_(1)gamma_(2))`
Here, `rho_(1)=900kgm^(3)`, `rho_(2)=880kg//m^(3)` , `gamma_(1)=1.2xx10^(-3)K^(-1)` ,
`gamma_(2)=1.5xx10^(-4)K^(-1)`
`:. DeltaT=21.7^(@)C`
