If mercury and glass had equal coefficient of volume expansion, could we make a mercury thermometer in a glass tube?

Mercury has a small coefficient of volume expansion.

A glass vessel measures exactly 10cm xx 10 cm xx 10 cm at 0^@C . It is filled completely with mercury at this temperature. When the temperature is raised to 10^@C , 1.6cm^3 of mercury overflows. Calculate the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury. coefficient of linear expansion of glass = 6.5 xx 10^(-6)C^(-1) .

A glass vessel measures exactly 10 cm xx 10 cm xx 10 cm at 0^@C . It is filled completely with mercury at this temperature. When the temperature is raised 10 10^C, 1.6cm^3 of mercury overflows. Calculate the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury. Coefficient of linear expansion of glass = 6.5 xx 10^(-6 @)C^(-1) .

A piece of metal floats on mercury. The coefficient of volume expansion of metal and mercury are gamma_1 and gamma_2 , respectively. if the temperature of both mercury and metal are increased by an amount Delta T , by what factor does the frection of the volume of the metal submerged in mercury changes ?

A barometer made of very narrow tuve (see fig) is placed at normal temperature and pressure. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 0.00018per C^@ and that of the tube is negligible. The temperature of mercury in the barometer is now raised by 1^@C , but the temperature of the atmosphere does not raised by 1^@C , but the temperature of the atmosphere does not change. Then the mercury height in the tube remains unchanged.

The remaining volume of a glass vessel is constant at all temperature if (1)/(x) of its volume is filled with mercury. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 7 times that of glass. The value of x should be

When a block of iron in mercury at 0^@C, fraction K_1 of its volume is submerged, while at the temperature 60^@C, a fraction K_2 is seen to be submerged. If the coefficient of volume expansion of iron is gamma_(Fe) and that of mercury is gamma_(Hg), then the ratio (K_1)//(K_2) can be expressed as

A flask of mercury is sealed off at 20^@C and is completely filled with mercury. If the bulk modulus for mercury is 250 Mpa and the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.82xx10^(-4)//^(@)C and the expansion of glass is ignored, the pressure of mercury within flask at 100^@C will be

The height of a mercury column measured with a brass scale, which is correct and equal to H_0 at 0^@C , is H_1 at t^@C ? The coefficient of linear expansion of brass is alpha and the coefficient of linear expansion of brass is alpha and the corfficient of volume expansion of mercury is gamma . Relate H_0 and H_1 .
