Mercury is often used as an expansion medium in a thermometer. The mercury sits in a bulb on the bottom of the thermometer and rises up a thin capillary as the temperature rises. Suppose a mercury thermometer contains 3.400 gg of mercury and has a capillary that is 0.220 mmmm in diameter.
How far does the mercury rise in the capillary when the temperature changes from 0.0 ∘C∘C to 25.0 ∘C∘C? The density of mercury at these temperatures is 13.596 g/cm3g/cm3 and 13.534 g/cm3g/cm3, respectively.
Homework Answers
Hence the rise in mercury will be equal to 3.025 cm

A mercury thermometer is constructed as shown. The capillary tube has a diameter of 0.0052 cm, and the bulb has a diameter of 0.3 cm. Neglecting the expansion of the glass, find the change in height of the mercury column for a temperature change of 27 ◦C. The volume expansion coefficient for mercury is 0.000182 (◦C)−1 . Answer in units of cm.
