CBSE BoardEnglish MediumSTD 12 ScienceJEE physicsThermometry, Thermal Expansion and Calorimetry1 Mark
Question
Assertion : The coefficient of volume expansion has dimension $K$.
Reason : The coefficient of volume expansion is defined as the change in volume per unit volume per unit change in temperature.
✓

Answer

(a) As, $\gamma=\frac{\Delta V}{V \Delta T}$ i.e., units of coefficient of volume expansion is $K$
