A 1-L flask contains some mercury. It is found that at different temperature, the volume of air inside the flask remains the same. What is the volume of mercury in the flask, given that the coefficient of linear expansion of glass`=9xx10^(-6)//^(@)C` and the coefficient of volume expansion of `Hg=1.8xx10^(-4)//^(@)C` ?
