A constant immersion hydrometer weighing 20 g sinks upto mark 'x' in water and this hydrometer has to weight 25 g to mark 'x' in a given liquid. Then the relative density of the liquid is ____.

A

0.25

B

1.25

C

0.75

D

`2.00`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`R.D.=("weight of hydrometer in liquid")/("weight of hydrometer in water")`
`=(25)/(20)=1.25`
