things float because they are less denser then the water. second things do not float, the molecules from the water support the molecules from the thing on the water. that is how something heavy can float. it just has to be boyent meaning it is spread out enough so there is more water molecules to hold it up. if you mean in the air it is the same concept.
An egg is one such thing.
If the density of the unknown is more than the density of water , it will sink If the density of the unknown is less than the density of water, it will float. Things do not float unless their densities are below that of water which is 1.00 g/ml.
it is when a egg float on the matter of something making it float.
Floating, or buoyancy, depends on the density of the liquid and the density of the object. Water is a pretty dense liquid, and things float in it; they are buoyant. Oil or gasoline are less dense; things that float in water may not float in oil.
It is quite common for various things to float in water. But any liquid can cause things to float.

things that float in water
salt makes the water denser, so things that are now less dense than the salt water will float

Freshwater is less dense than saltwater, and so it tends to float on top, as less dense things tend to float on denser things.
Yes. For every fluid, there are things that float in it ... they just have to be things that are less dense than the fluid. That's how stones float in mercury, logs float in water, and hot balloons float in air.

Things float in water if they are less dense than the water they are floating in. Putting salt in the water makes it more dense, so things that are a little more dense than ordinary 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.
Due to high density of sea water things float higher in sea water.
An object's density is related to its weight and size. If the density is less than that of water, it will float on the water. If it is greater than that of water, it will sink. Water is not very dense - most things don't float on water. This is because they are denser than it and it cannot support them.
