THERMAL EXPANSION IN SOLIDS AND IN LIQUIDS

Model HV-EXP2433
THERMAL EXPANSION IN SOLIDS AND IN LIQUIDS Volumetric expansion of liquids and linear expansion of various materials depend on temperature. TRAINING PROGRAM • linear expansion • volumetric expansion of liquids • thermal capacity • Grüneisen’s equation OBJECTIVES • determining the volumetric expansion of ethyl acetate, of brandy, of olive oil, of glycerol and of water versus temperature, by pycnometer • determining the linear expansion of brass, of iron, of copper, of aluminium, of glass and of quartz versus temperature, by a dilatometer • determining the ratio between the variation of length and the total length of aluminium COMPONENTS • dilatometer • tube of copper for dilatometer • tube of aluminium for dilatometer • tube of quartz glass for dilatometer • immersion thermostat • bath for thermostat • laboratory thermometers • rubber pipe • syringe • measuring tube • flasks, beakers • ethyl acetate, glycerol, olive oil PORTABLE TRAVELER BALANCE
