Things can float better in salt water, due to density. For a visual experience, try getting 2 cups, fill both with tap water, and put salt in one cup, then mix it in. Get 2 eggs, and put one in each cup, keep on adding salt to one cup, until the egg floats. I hope I answered your question!

Does objects that float in water float in salt water?
Yes. Salt water has a slightly higher density then fresh water which means its a little easier for things to float in salt water. So if it floats in fresh water it will certainly float in salt water.
Why does fresh water float on salt water?
Freshwater is less dense than saltwater, and so it tends to float on top, as less dense things tend to float on denser things.
Why does salt water make stuff float than fresh water?
Salt water has a greater density than fresh water. So the same object will foat higher in salt water than in fresh, and some things will foat in salt water that are too dense to float in fresh water.
Is it eaiser to float in salt water than fresh water?
It is easier to float in salt water than in fresh water.
Why swimmers float better in ocean particle theory?
Because salt water is denser than fresh water.
Dose a swimmer float better in fresh salt water or non fresh salt water?
on fresh salt water
Does toys float better on fresh water or on salt water?
No. Toys float better on salt water than on fresh water because salt water has higher density, and the ratio of density controls buoyancy.
Do objects float the same in salt water and fresh water?
objects float better because chemicals help make the objects float higher. the more salt the higher the things go
Why is it easier to float in saltwater than in fresh water then in fresh water?
Because salt is dense, so denser the water the better you float!
Does objects that float in water float in salt water?
Yes. Salt water has a slightly higher density then fresh water which means its a little easier for things to float in salt water. So if it floats in fresh water it will certainly float in salt water.
Will a raw egg float better in salt water or fresh water?
salt water
Why do things float easier on salt water than fresh water?
density
What things will float in salt water and not in fresh water?
An egg is one such thing.
Would an object float better in salt water compared to fresh water?
Yes.
Why does fresh water float on salt water?
Freshwater is less dense than saltwater, and so it tends to float on top, as less dense things tend to float on denser things.
Why do things float better in salted water?
Salt water is more denser than any kind of water, because of its salt content,it increases the bouyancy (the property of a fluid to exert an upward thrust of the body emerged into it) of the water.So, things float more better in salt water.
Why does salt water make stuff float than fresh water?
Salt water has a greater density than fresh water. So the same object will foat higher in salt water than in fresh, and some things will foat in salt water that are too dense to float in fresh water.
