Problem

When a liquid is heated in a particular vessel, its volume does not appear to change with temperature. What must be true about the coefficients of cubical expansion of the liquid (γr\gamma_{r}) and the vessel (γcontainer\gamma_{\text{container}})? (a) γr>γcontainer\gamma_{r}>\gamma_{\text{container}} (b) γr=γcontainer\gamma_{r}=\gamma_{\text{container}} (c) γr=0\gamma_{r}=0 (d) γcontainer=0\gamma_{\text{container}}=0
