For the given situation, liquid of density 2ρ  should be behind that of  ρ.

From the right limb,  PA=Patm+ρgh
PB=PA+ρa12=Patm+ρgh+ρa12 PC=PB+(2ρ)a12=Patm+ρgh+32ρal          .......(i)

But from the left limb,  PC=Patm+(2ρ)gh              .......(ii)
From Eqs.   (i) and (ii),
Patm+ρgh+32ρal=Patm+2ρgh   h=3al2g
