Density of substance at 0°C is 10 g/cc and at 100°C, its density is 9.7 g/cc. The coefficient of linear expansion of the substance will be-

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Volume is inversely proportional to density.

The volume increase is about 3.09% over 100°C, so α≈(0.0309)/(300)=1.03×10^-4 K^-1.
