Four beakers are labelled as P,Q,R and S. A student puts salt solutions of different concentrations in the four beakers without spring balance gives a reading of 150g in air. When this solid, while still suspended from the hook of spring balance, is fully immersed in beakers P,Q,R and S, the readings shown by the spring balance in the four beakers P,Q,R and S are 110g,130g, 140g and 120g respectively. The most concentrated solution is contained in the beaker labelled as:
