Solution

The correct option is C remains the same
The coefficient of linear expansion is a constant that governs the degree to which the length of a solid will change as a result of an alteration in temperature. For any given substance, the coefficient of linear expansion is typically a number expressed in terms of $10^{- 5} /^{o} C$ .
