Possible units for the coefficient of volume expansion are:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The coefficient of volume expansion is the change in volume per unit volume per unit temperature change. Therefore, the units are 1/(unit of volume)(unit of temperature). The given options can be simplified as follows: A) mm/CF1F1F1S1F1F1F10 = mm/(ft3*°F) B) mm³/CF1F1F1S1F1F1F10 = (mm/s*Pa)/(ft3*°F) C) (CF1F1F1S1F1F1F10)³ = (ft3/°F)*(s*Pa) D) 1/(CF1F1F1S1F1F1F10)³ = (°F*ft3)/(s*Pa) E) 1/CF1F1F1S1F1F1F10 = 1/(ft3*°F) Among these options, E has the correct units of 1/(unit of volume)(unit of temperature) which is the coefficient of volume expansion. Therefore, the best choice is E.
