Solution

The correct option is B 0.75
Mass of empty R.D bottle = 26.4 gm
Mass of R.D bottle + water = 38.4 gm
Mass of R.D bottle + liquid = 35.4 gm
mass of only water = 38.4 -26.4 = 12 gm
Volume of 1 g of water = 1 cm3
Volume of 12 g of water = 12cm3
Mass of only liquid = 35.4 - 26.4 = 9 gm
Volume of the liquid = 12cm3
Density of liquid = MassofliquidVol.ofliquid=9g12cm3=0.75g/cm3
R.D of the liquid = DensityofliquidDensityofwater=0.75g/cm31.00g/cm3=0.75
