Because as with any liquid, gas or products that expand with heat. Gas,(by this I assume you mean fuel)expands at moderately low temps. (85-78) You will have more fuel in the tank on a hot day (85-90) than the next morning at say 72 degrees. Gas Volume correction is a means in which to determine several things. 1. It insures that if a station pays for 5000 gallons, the tank gage will validate the delivery + - what the temp of the fuel is before delivery and after delivery. It will show that on a relatively warm day delivery, the actual volume delivered was 4987 gallons. On a cold day delivery the volume will read 5012 gallons. 2. if a cold day delivery was scheduled, and the current reading of the tank at delivery was 4027 gallons of fuel in a 10000 gallon capacity tank, the driver will know that transferring a scheduled 5000 gallon load risks the eventuality that with a rise in the temperature, the tanks will overflow. And finally 3. The pump meters the amount of fuel dispensed according to the ambient temps. It correlates the temp of the fuel and ambient temp to insure that if you, the consumer, paid for 10 gallons of fuel, that you get 10 gallons of fuel with a margin of 9/10th give or take.
What else can I help you with?
Does volume of water affect temperature rise in reaction between calcium oxide and water?
Yes, the volume of water can affect the temperature rise in the reaction between calcium oxide and water. A larger volume of water can absorb more heat energy released during the reaction, resulting in a lower temperature rise compared to a smaller volume of water. Additionally, the concentration of the resulting calcium hydroxide solution can also influence the temperature change.
What is the volume of 1 gallon of cold gasoline 60 degrees F compared to warm gasoline 80 degrees F?
The volume of gasoline increases with temperature. When gasoline is warmer at 80 degrees F compared to 60 degrees F, it will expand and occupy a larger volume than the same amount of gasoline at the lower temperature.
When the temperature of the gas rises to 353 kelvins what is the volume of the gas?
Well, darling, if we're talking about an ideal gas here, we can use the equation PV = nRT to figure this out. Just plug in the given temperature of 353 K, along with the pressure, number of moles, and gas constant, and you'll have your volume. It's as simple as that, honey.
How does decreasing the temperature affect the volume of a gas?
The molecules will not collide as often with the walls decreasing the volume
What two properties determine the density of sea water?
Temperature and Salinity. Both are important although temperature has a much greater effect than salinity on seawater density.
What factors affects pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
How can you decrease the pressure of gas in a container without changing the volume of the gas?
You could lower the temperature.
What condition is necessary for the flow of heat?
A temperature difference between two objects or systems is necessary for the flow of heat. Heat flows from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature until thermal equilibrium is reached.
How would you expect the intrinsic volume for a polymer in a particular solvent to vary with temperature?
generally, a polymer gets dissolved in a solvent (which implies lower density and higher volume). the higher the temperature, the quicker the process, so to answer: the intrinsic volume for a polymer in a particular solvent increases with the temperature.
How can you decrease pressure of a gas in its container without changing the volume of gas?
lots of ways 1. cool it down 2. give it more space 3. remove some gas
How does the change in the volume of water affects the temperature at which KNO3 crystals will form?
1. Decreasing the volume of water crystallization at a lower temperature is more possible.2. The solubilty is expressed in amount of solute, in a given volume (ex. 100 mL or 1 L) at a given temperature and pressure.
Why are large amounts of oxygen often transported as a liquid at low temperature?
The volume is lower and the transport easier.
What happens to the volume of an object when temperature decrease?
When the temperature of an object decreases, its volume tends to decrease as well. This is because as the temperature drops, the particles in the object move slower and closer together, causing the object to contract and reduce in volume.
What are the two condition necessary for the conduction of heat?
The two necessary conditions for the conduction of heat are a temperature gradient (difference in temperature) and a material that can conduct heat, such as metals or solids. Heat energy flows from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature through the material.
When a gas is cooled it?
The Ideal Gas Laws describe the relationship of temperature, pressure, and volume for a gas. These three things are all related. At lower temperatures a gas will exert lower pressure if the volume remains the same, or can exert the same pressure but in a smaller volume.
Why is water with a lower temperature denser than water with high temperature?
The density is d=M/V; at low temperatures the volume decrease and the density increase.
What are the condition for ideal fluid?
1.Isothermal expansion at a high temperature AB 2.Adiabatic expansion as the temperature falls to a lower rule BC 3.Isothermal compression at lower temperature CD 4.Adiabatic compression as temperature increase to initial high volume DA
