Answer:

1.025

Step-by-step explanation:

The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displace. The hydrometer floats more in the denser liquids. The buoyancy force is usually 1.025 in the solution but it is increased if more pressure is exerted on the solution. The pressure of the fluid will increase from its depth.
