$A$ glass flask of volume $1 \text{ litre}$ is filled completely with mercury at $0^{\circ} C$. The flask is now heated to $100^{\circ} C$. The coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is $1.82 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and the coefficient of linear expansion of glass is $0.1 \times 10^{-4} /{ }^{\circ} C$. During this process, the amount of mercury which overflows is (in $\text{ cc}$)

  • A
    $21.2$
  • B
    $15.2$
  • C
    $2.12$
  • D
    $18.2$
