A piece of metal weighs $45\, g$ in air and $25\, g$ in a liquid of density $1.5 \times 10^{3} \,kg - m ^{-3}$ kept at $30^{\circ} C$. When the temperature of the liquid is raised to $40^{\circ} C$, the metal piece weighs $27\, g$. The density of liquid at $40^{\circ} C$ is $1.25 \times 10^{3} \,kg - m ^{-3}$. The coefficient of linear expansion of metal is
