The mass of a stone is 15.0g when completely immersed in water and 10.0g when completely immersed in a liquid of relative density 2.0. The mass of the stone in air is
  • A.
    5.0g
  • B.
    12.0g
  • C.
    20.0g
  • D.
    25.0g
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

R.D = (frac{text{ mass of liquid displaced}}{text {mass of water displaced}})
2 = (frac{m – 10}{m – 15})
m = 20g
