Boris completely filled a 2.5-liter container with gasoline at a temperature of 20°C. He then left the gasoline in a storage locker where the temperature reached 38°C. The lid of the container was not screwed on tightly, so gasoline was able to leak out and evaporate. Boris uses the gas in his scooter, which gets 35 km/liter. How far could Boris have ridden his scooter using the lost gas?

(?gasoline = 9.6 × 10^–4/°C)
a. 4.7 m
b. 43 m
c. 1.5 km
d. 180 km
