In a vertical $U-$tube containing a liquid,the two arms are maintained at different temperatures ${t_1}$ and ${t_2}$. The liquid columns in the two arms have heights ${l_1}$ and ${l_2}$ respectively. The coefficient of volume expansion of the liquid is equal to

  • A
    $\frac{{{l_1} - {l_2}}}{{{l_2}{t_1} - {l_1}{t_2}}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{{l_1} - {l_2}}}{{{l_1}{t_1} - {l_2}{t_2}}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{{l_1} + {l_2}}}{{{l_2}{t_1} + {l_1}{t_2}}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{{l_1} + {l_2}}}{{{l_1}{t_1} + {l_2}{t_2}}}$
