    Question

    Densities of four liquids A, B, C and D are given below:

    Based on this information, identify the correct statement from the following:

    A.

    An object that floats in liquid B surely floats in liquid A.

    B.

    An object that floats in liquid C surely floats in liquid B.

    C.

    An object that floats in liquids A may or may not float in liquid B.

    D.

    An object that floats in liquid C may or may not float in liquid A.

    Correct option is D

    Based on the given information about the densities of liquids A, B, C, and D:
    Liquid A has a density of 785 kg/m3
    Liquid B has a density of 820 kg/m3
    Liquid C has a density of 924 kg/m3
    Liquid D has a density of 1020 kg/m3
    (a) An object that floats in liquid C may or may not float in liquid A.
    This statement is correct. Whether an object floats in liquid A or not depends on its density compared to liquid A, and the density of liquid C doesn’t provide enough information to make a definite conclusion about its floatation in liquid A.
    (b) An object that floats in liquid A may not float in liquid B.
    This statement is correct. Whether an object floats in liquid B or not depends on its density compared to liquid B, and the density of liquid A doesn’t provide enough information to make a definite conclusion about its floatation in liquid B.
    (c) An object that floats in liquid B surely floats in liquid A
    This statement is incorrect. Liquid A has a lower density (785 Kg/m3) than liquid B (820 kg/m3), so an object that floats in liquid B does not necessarily float in liquid A. It may sink in liquid A.
    (d) An object that floats in liquid C surely floats in liquid B.
    This statement is incorrect. Liquid B has a higher density (820 kg/m3) than liquid C (924 kg/m3), so an object that floats in liquid C does not necessarily float in liquid B. It may sink in liquid B.
