Ahot glass full of hot water is put into the freezer. the glass breaks because it contracts more than the water as it cools. the reason for this is: a. the glass has a smaller coefficient of linear expansion than the water. b. the water has a larger coefficient of linear expansion than the glass. c. the glass has a larger coefficient of linear expansion than the water. d. the two have equal coefficients of linear expansion.

C.the glass has a larger coefficient of linear expansion than the water.

Explanation:

As we can see that in the given example hot water is poured in the glass beaker and put into the freezer

now when we placed the system into the freezer then in that case the water as well as the glass beaker will start contract.

Now if the rate of contraction of the water is less than the rate of contraction of the beaker then in that case the beaker will not get the sufficient space to fill it.

Due to this the deficiency of space may create the breaking of glass

so here correct answer should be

C.the glass has a larger coefficient of linear expansion than the water.

energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical means. do not understand what you are asking but hope this
