Early in the morning when the temperature is 5°C, gasoline is pumped into a car's 51 L steel gas tank until it is filled to the top. Later in the day the temperature rises to 25°C. Since the volume of gasoline increases more for a given temperature increase than the volume of the steel tank, gasoline will spill out of the tank. How much gasoline spills out in this case? Bgasoline = 950 x 10-6/K Bsteet = 35 x 10-6/K
