Give one example each for solid,liquid,and gas showing expansion with an increase in temperature and contraction with a decrease in temperature.

Find the amount of heat supplied to decrease the volume of an ice-water mixture by $1 \, cm^3$ without any change in temperature. (Given: $\rho_{ice} = 0.9 \rho_{water}$,$L_{ice} = 80 \, cal/g$).

Find the quantity of heat required to convert $40 \; g$ of ice at $-20^{\circ} C$ into water at $20^{\circ} C$. Given $L_{\text{ice}} = 0.336 \times 10^6 \; J/kg$,specific heat of ice $= 2100 \; J/kg \cdot K$,and specific heat of water $= 4200 \; J/kg \cdot K$. (in $; J$)

If the ratio of densities of two substances is $5:6$ and the ratio of their specific heat capacities is $3:5$,then the ratio of heat energies required per unit volume so that the two substances can have the same temperature rise is

Consider two thermometers $T_1$ and $T_2$ of equal length,which can be used to measure temperature over the range $\theta_1$ to $\theta_2$. $T_1$ contains mercury as the thermometric liquid,while $T_2$ contains bromine. The volumes of the two liquids are the same at the temperature $\theta_1$. The volumetric coefficients of expansion of mercury and bromine are $18 \times 10^{-5} \, K^{-1}$ and $108 \times 10^{-5} \, K^{-1}$,respectively. The increase in length of each liquid is the same for the same increase in temperature. If the diameters of the capillary tubes of the two thermometers are $d_1$ and $d_2$,respectively,then the ratio $d_1: d_2$ is closest to:

$A$ thin-walled cylindrical metal vessel with a linear coefficient of expansion $10^{-3} \ ^\circ C^{-1}$ contains benzene with a volume expansion coefficient of $10^{-3} \ ^\circ C^{-1}$. If the vessel and its contents are heated by $10 \ ^\circ C$,the pressure due to the liquid at the bottom:
