$A$ glass flask of volume $1 \, L$ is completely filled with mercury at $0 \, ^\circ C$. The temperature of the glass flask and mercury is raised to $100 \, ^\circ C$. If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is $1.82 \times 10^{-4} \, ^\circ C^{-1}$ and the coefficient of linear expansion of glass is $0.1 \times 10^{-4} \, ^\circ C^{-1}$,how much mercury will overflow from the flask? (in $cm^3$)

  • A
    $21.2$
  • B
    $15.2$
  • C
    $1.52$
  • D
    $2.12$
