उत्तर
Given:
Specific gravity of water, \[\rho_W\] = 1 gm/cc
Specific gravity of ice, ρice = 0.9 gm/cc
Specific gravity of kerosene oil, ρk = 0.8 gm/cc
Now,
Vice = Vk + Vw
Here,
Vk = Volume of ice inside kerosene oil
Vw = Volume of ice inside water
Vice = Volume of ice
Thus, we have:
\[V_{ice} \times \rho_{ice} \times g = V_k \times \rho_k \times g + V_w \times \rho_w \times g\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( V_k + V_w \right) \times \rho_{ice} = V_k \times \rho_k + V_w \times \rho_w \]
\[ \Rightarrow (0 . 9) V_k + (0 . 9) V_w = (0 . 8) V_k + \left( 1 \right) \times V_w \]
\[ \Rightarrow (0 . 1) V_w = 0 . 1 V_k \]
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{V_w}{V_k} = 1 . \]
\[ \Rightarrow V_w : V_k = 1: 1\]
