147.5 ml of ethyl alcohol (coefficient of volume expansion β = 1,120 x 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹), at a temperature of 273.1 K, is poured into a 150.0 ml glass beaker (whose coefficient of volume expansion is negligible by comparison). To what temperature does the beaker have to be warmed for it to be completely full (i.e., for the volume of the alcohol to reach 150.0 ml)? A) 288.0 K B) 278.1 K C) 283.1 K D) 288.2 K
