It can be, or it can be less than the weight of the object.
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.
because bouyant force is the result of the displacement of the fluid an object is in, if a fluis is displaced by the volume of an object the weight of the fluid being displaced is pushing up on the object
The upward bouyant force depends only on the weight of the displaced fluid. The NET force (object's weight - bouyant force) depends on the object's weight and will determine how fast it sinks.
Upthrust which is equal to weight of fluid displaced
A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight.
Bouyancy is defined as the force on a object submerged in a fluid equal to the difference in weight of the object and the fluid displaced. If the total weight of the object is the same as the same volume of the fluid, the bouyant force is zero, and the object will stay in the same place.
The bouyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid the object displaces.
The weight of the bouyant force and the fluid displaced by the object are equal.
The weight of the bouyant force and the fluid displaced by the object are equal.
The weight of the bouyant force and the fluid displaced by the object are equal.

The bouyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced.
It sinks
No, but the difference between the buoyant force and the weight of the object will determine whether it floats or sinks.
