To find the change in temperature at which wood will just sink in benzene, we will use the concept of density changes due to thermal expansion. The density of a substance changes with temperature according to the formula: \[ \rho' = \rho (1 - \beta \Delta T) \] Where: - \(\rho'\) is the new density after temperature change, ...
