The apparent coefficient of expansion of a liquid, when heated in a copper vessel is $C$ and when heated in a silver vessel is $S$. If $A$ is the linear coefficient of expansion of copper, then the linear coefficient of expansion of silver is:

  • A
    $\frac{C-S-3A}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{C+3A-S}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{S+3A-C}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{C+S+3A}{3}$
