In case of minimum density of liqued, sphere will be floating while completely submerged So $\mathrm{mg}=\mathrm{B}$

$\mathrm{m}=\int_{0}^{\mathrm{R}} \rho\left(4 \pi \mathrm{r}^{2} \mathrm{dr}\right)=\mathrm{B}$

$=\rho_{0} \int_{0}^{R}\left(1-\frac{r^{2}}{R^{2}}\right) 4 \pi r^{2} d r=\frac{4}{3} \pi R^{3} \rho_{\ell} g$

On Solving

$\rho_{\ell}=\frac{2 \rho_{0}}{5}$
