If the relative density of 'x' and 'y' is 3 and 2, respectively. Then the density of 'x' with respect to that of 'y' is_____.
(a) 6 (b) 5 (c ) 1.5 (d) 1

Options

A. 6
B. 5
C. 1.5
D. 1

Explanation

RD = `("Density of substance")/("Density of water" (d_(w)))`
`3=(d_(x))/(d_(w)),d_(x)=3d_(w)`
`2=(d_(y))/(d_(w)),d_(y)=2d_(w)`
`(d_(x))/(d_(y))=(3d_(w))/(2d_(w))=3/2=1.5`
Hence, the correction option is (c).
