A glass flask whose volume is exactly 10...

A glass flask whose volume is exactly 1000 at `0^@C` is completely filled with mercury at this temperature . When the flask and mercury are heated to `100 ^@C` , it is found that `15.4 cm^3` of mercury overflows. If the coefficient of volume expansion of mercury is `1.8xx10^(-4)//K` , calculate the coefficient of volume expansion of glass.
