Two vertical glass tubes filled with a liquid are connected by a capillary tube as shown in the figure. The tube on the left is put in an ice bath at $0^{\circ}C$ while the tube on the right is kept at $30^{\circ}C$ in a water bath. The difference in the levels of the liquid in the two tubes is $4 \, cm$ while the height of the liquid column at $0^{\circ}C$ is $120 \, cm$. The coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid is (Ignore expansion of the glass tube):

  • A
    $22 \times 10^{-4}/^{\circ}C$
  • B
    $1.1 \times 10^{-4}/^{\circ}C$
  • C
    $11 \times 10^{-4}/^{\circ}C$
  • D
    $2.2 \times 10^{-4}/^{\circ}C$
