A small quantity of a liquid which dows not mix with water sinks to the bottom at `20^@`C, the densities of the liquid and water being 1021 and `990 kg//m^(3)`, respectively. To what teperature must the mixture be uniformly heated in order that the liquid forms globules which just float on water ? the cubical expansion of the liquid and water over the temperature ranges is `85xx10^(-5)//K` and `45xx10^(-5)//K` respectively.
