Suppose your 54.0 L (14.3 gal) steel gasoline tank is full of gas, both the tank and the gas have a temperature of 15.0°C. The coefficient of volume expansion for gasoline is 950 x 10-6/°C and for steel is 35 x 10-6/°C. (a) How much gas has spilled by the time they warm to 44.0°C? 0.9396 X Note that the tank will also expand due to the increase in temperature. L (b) Suppose the 54.0 L tank is sealed, preventing the gasoline from overflowing. What pressure would be created in the gasoline tank if the sealed tank increases in temperature from 15.0°C to 44.0°C? (Use 1.00 x 10⁹ N/m² as the bulk modulus for gasoline.) N/m²
