In a constant volume gas thermometer, the pressure of the working gas is measured by the differenced in the levels of mercury in the two arms of a U-tube connected to the gas at one end. When the bulb is placed at the room temperature `27.0^0 C`, the mercury column in the arm open to atmosphere stands `5.00 cm` above the level of mercury in the other arm. When the bulb is placed in a hot liquid, the difference of mercury levels becomes `45..0 Cm`. Calculate the temperature of the liquid. (Atmospheric pressure `= 75.0cm` of mercury).
