Il's a statistical physics problem, you have got interaction with the liquide molecule. Because of the gravity, the interaction will depend on the position of the solide in the liquide. The deeper the surface is the higher the pressure will be. For an homogenous liquide, the difference of pressure will equal the wheight of the object if his density equal the liquid density.
