Apparent expansion of a liquid is the increase in volume which appears to have taken place if no notice is taken. Real expansion is the actual increase in volume of a liquid per unit volume per degree rise in temperature
We can specify a liquid by its volume. Hence, we can speak of volume expansion only for liquids. Expansion of liquids is much greater than that of solids.A liquid is heated in a container....
Very well, actually. Solids and liquids do not expand or compress very well at all. Whereas gases do.This is why we can use pistons and hydraulics, since liquids and solids do not compress much at...
