Current Attempt in Progress A cylindrical glass beaker of height 1.256m rests on a table. The bottom half of the beaker is filled with a gas, and the top half is filled with liquid mercury that is exposed to the atmosphere. The gas and mercury do not mix because they are separated by a frictionless, movable piston of negligible mass and thickness. The initial temperature is 277 K. The temperature is increased until a value is reached when one-half of the mercury has spilled out. Ignore the thermal expansion of the glass and mercury, and find this temperature in kelvins.
