Why does using sodium bicarbonate as electrolyte when performing electrolysis of water produce less than one half volume oxygen for every one volume of hydrogen produced?

Because the electrolysis of water reaction always produces twice as much hydrogen (by volume or by mole) as they do oxygen. H2O(l) -> H2(g) + 1/2 O2(g)

How does the amount of buoyant force exerted by water vary with the volume of submerged solid?

The amount of buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The VOLUME of the displaced water is equal to the part of the solid that is submerged - thus, the buoyant force is equal to this volume, times the density of the water.
