I'm not sure I've ever tried this experiment, but taking the given data at face value: I'd assume it's because the density of the peel is very low, enough to offset the slightly-greater-than-water average density of the inside of the orange.

Why does a peeled orange sinks?
the peeled orange have less density as compare to unpeeled orange that why the peeled orange sink in water
What floats a peeled or a unpeeled orange?
The orange sinks when it is peeled. The skin contains airbags that help it remain afloat. When the skin is peeled the air bags no longer remain there and the orange will sink.

Do peeled oranges float better than unpeeled oranges?
Oranges float because with their peel on, their density is less than 1. The density of water is 1, and anything with a density less than 1 will float. However, if the peel is removed, the density will be more than 1, and the orange will sink. The formula for finding density is: Mass ÷ Volume=Density
An unpeeled orange floats in water but a peeled orange sinks why?
The density of water is 1. With their peel on, the orange's density is less than 1. However, without the peel, the orange's density is greater than 1. Density > 1 (Float) Density < 1 (Sink) Mass ÷ Volume = Density Mass ÷ Density = Volume Density × Volume = Mass
What fruits sink in water?
Pear is a fruit that does not float in water. It sinks. If you peel an orange it will sink, but keep it intact and it floats.
Why do shark sink when they die?
