An automobile gas tank is filled to its capacity of 20.00 gallons with the gasoline at an initial temperature of 10°C. The automobile is parked in the Sun causing the gasoline's temperature to rise to 60°C. If the coefficient of volume expansion for gasoline is 9.6 × 10^-4/°C, what volume runs out the overflow tube? Assume the change in volume of the tank is negligible

a. 1.74 gallons
c. 0.72 gallon
b. 0.96 gallon
