On heating a liquid having coefficient of volume expansion 
in a container having coefficient of linear expansion 
, the level of the liquid in the container would
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Coefficient of volume expansion of container will become 
, which is greater than the coefficient of volume expansion of liquid. Hence, container will expand more and the level of the liquid in the container would fall.
