A mercury thermometer has a glass bulb of interior volume 0.100 cm3 at 10°C. The glass capillary tube above the bulb has an inner cross-sectional area of 0.012 mm2. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is 1.8 × 10-4 K-1

If the expansion of the glass is negligible, how much will the mercury rise in the capillary tube when the temperature rises from 5°C to 35°C if the bulb was full at 5°C? A) 0.45 mm B) 4.5 mm C) 45 mm D) 45 cm
