Questions  

Among the following , the liquid having negative coefficient of cubical expansion between 273K and 277K is

a
Ethylene Glycol
b
Mercury
c
Water
d
None

detailed solution

Correct option is C

273 K = 0°C277 K = 4°COn heating from 0°C, volume of water gradually decreases and becomes minimum at 4°C. So in the range 273 K to 277 K, coefficient of cubical expansion of water is negative.
