A hollow aluminum cylinder 22.5 cm deep has an internal capacity of 2.000 L at 22. It is completely filled with turpentine at 22.

A hollow aluminum cylinder 22.5 cm deep has an internal capacity of 2.000 L at 22.0°C. It is completely filled with turpentine at 22.0°C. The turpentine and the aluminum cylinder are then slowly warmed together to 80.0°C. (The average linear expansion coefficient for aluminum is 2.4 10-5°C−1, and the average volume expansion coefficient for turpentine is 9.0 10-4°C−1.)
