esame temperature as the bulb, it increasesin volume, the column rises in the tubeand finally comes to C. The volume be-tween B and G is proportional to the co-efficient of expansion of the liquid. Hencethe volume between A and G is propor-tional to the difference between the coefficients of… … 76-77] DILATATION OF LIQUIDS. 77 us and is thus proportional to the apparent coefficient of ex-pansion of the liquid. We thus get the result that Apparent coefficient of dilatation of a liquid = coefficient ofdilatation of the liquid — coefficient of dilatation of the containingvessel. The apparent…
