What is the coefficient of volume expansion in the glass

Reference no: EM13103105

A glass flask at 0 degrees Celsius is filled to the brim with 1000 cm(^3) of mercury, also at 0 degrees Celsius. When the flask and mercury are heated to 100 degrees Celsius, 13.4 cm(^3) of mercury overflows. If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 18x10(^-5) (K^-1), what is the coefficient of volume expansion in the glass?
