The older an egg is the more likely it is to float. If it actually sits on the surface it may actually have gone bad.
unboiled eggs float, but the boiled ones sink.
Eggs that sink in water are fresh and good to eat, while eggs that float are old and should be discarded.
Bad eggs don't sink they float.
Eggs sink in water because they are denser than water. The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in a liquid. Since eggs are denser than water, they sink when placed in it.
As the egg decomposes, the mass of the egg is reduced. This is because the egg shell is porous and water vapor and gases can escape over time, reducing the mass of the egg. If the mass of the egg is less than the mass of the volume of water displaced by the egg, it will float.
it will float as long as it is not fully covered water.
Eggs typically sink in water when they are fresh because their density is greater than that of water. However, as eggs age, the air cell inside them expands, causing them to become less dense and eventually float. If an egg floats, it’s a sign that it may be spoiled and should be discarded. Always check for freshness before consuming eggs.
Unspoiled eggs will sink in pure water. This is because fresh eggs have a higher density than water, causing them to sink. If an egg floats in water, it may indicate that it is spoiled and should not be eaten.
When eggs float in water, it means they are not fresh. This is because as eggs age, air enters the shell and the air pocket inside the egg grows larger, causing it to float. Fresh eggs sink to the bottom of the water. This simple test can help determine the freshness of eggs before consuming them.

No, rotten eggs do not float in salt water. An egg will float in water when it is old and starting to spoil due to the air pocket inside increasing in size, not necessarily because it is rotten. Rotten eggs may sink or float in water depending on various factors such as gas buildup, but the salt content of the water usually does not affect this.
