A piece of solid weight 120 g in air, 80 g in water and 60 g in a liquid, then the relative density of the solid, and that of liquid are

A

`3,2`

B

`2,(4)/(3)`

C

`3,(3)/(2)`

D

`4,3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(c ) Relative density of solid ` =(120)/(120 - 80) = 3`
Relative density of liquid `= (120 -60)/(120 -80) = (60)/(40) = (3)/(2).`
