When an object is immersed in a liquid, the liquid exerts a buoyant force on the object which is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the object. This statement is known as Archimedes' Principle.

When a solid body is immersed wholly or partially in a liquid, then there is same apparent loss in its weight. This loss in weight is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body.

the bouyant force of an object equal to the weight of the fluid that the object displaced .

When a body gets immersed then an equal volume of liquid will be displaced. The weight of this displaced liquid would exert an upward force which is named as buoyant force. So the statement goes as:

When a body floats in a liquid then its weight is balanced by the buoyant force.
