Look at the LAST WORD of the question, they switch it sometimes if it is: Underwater than it is TRUE, If it's Surface of the water than it is FALSE ~

(As Archimedes observed : if the object sinks, then the same volume is displaced.)

When an object floats, the weight of the displaced water equals the weight of the floating object.

If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
False - Apex
Do hydrometers float higher in liquids that are more dense or less dense?
An object floats when it displaces a volume of fluid that is equal to its total weight. The more dense (heavier per volume) the fluid is, the less the volume is that must be displaced to equal the weight of the object that floats in it.Therefore an object floats higher (is less submerged) in a denser fluid.
The volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's above the surface of the water?
This statement is not correct. The weight of the water displaced by a body in it, is equal to the buoyancy force that the body will experience. In the case the body floats on the surface of water, the weight of the water displaced by the body is equal to the weight of the body.

It's true that the volume of displaced water of a floating object equalst the portion of that object that is underwater.

False
How can an irregular volume be measured?
By placing the object in water and the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object immersed
How does the volume of completely submerged object compare with the volume of water displaced?
They are equal.

How does Archimedes principle relate the buoyant force acting on an object and the volume of the fluid displaced by the object?
The buoyancy force is equal to the WEIGHT of the volume of fluid displaced by the object.
The volume of a submerged object is equal to of the liquid displaced?
yes
Is the weight of a submerged object equal to the weight of the displaced fluid?
No, it is equal in volume.
