Jane smith, an old‐fashioned engineering student, believes that the boiling of water is best suited for use as the reference point on temperature scales. unhappy that the boiling point corresponds to some odd number in the current absolute temperature scales, she has proposed a new absolute temperature scale that she calls the smith scale. the temperature unit on this scale is smith, denoted by ܵ, and the boiling of water on this scale is assigned to be 1000 ܵ. from a thermodynamic point of view, discuss if it is an acceptable temperature scale. also, determine the freezing point of water in the smith scale and obtain a relation between the smith and the celsius scales.

Water at room temperature of 20.0°c is poured into an aluminum cylinder which has graduation markings etched on the inside. the reading in the graduations is 300.0 cc. the cylinder with the water in it is then immersed in a constant temperature bath at a temperature of 100°c. what is the reading for the level of water on the graduations of the cylinder after the water and the cylinder reach thermal equilibrium with the bath? the volume coefficient of expansion of water is 2.07 x 10^-4 k-1, and the linear coefficient of expansion of aluminum is 23.0 x 10^-6 k-1. a) 305.0 cc b) 304.0 cc c) 303.5 cc d) 303.3 cc e) 304.5 cc
