Here is a problem lI've encountered a few times, and it could lead to a dangerous accident and fire. I filled the gas tank of my truck (25 gal) all the way to the top when the temperature was 23°C. After sitting in the Sun all day, the temperature of the gasoline and the steel tank rose to about 35°C. The coefficient of volume expansion for gasoline (96 x 10* °c") is greater than that for steel (1.1 x 105 °C), and so some gas overflowed out of the tank and on to the ground. Fortunately no one threw a lighted cigarette on the ground by my rig. About how much gas would overflow under these conditions? A. 0.82 gal (B)0.28 gal C. 0.93 gal D. 0.39 gal
