The density of a substance at $0^{\circ}C$ is $10 \, g/cm^3$ and at $100^{\circ}C$,its density is $9.7 \, g/cm^3$. The coefficient of linear expansion of the substance is:

  • A
    $10^{-2} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • B
    $10^{-3} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • C
    $10^{-4} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
  • D
    $10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$
