What else can I help you with?
What chemical makes things float?
Often the element helium (atomic symbol: He) often makes objects float, most commonly balloons.
What makes an object sink or float?
maybe the density of the objects
What property in water makes things sink or float?
Its density.If a substance is denser than water, it will sink. If it is less dense, then it will float.(The surface tension of water also contributes slightly to this.)
Why does salt makes an object float?
it increases the density of the water, making objects float easier. ex. the dead sea.
Do you float in sea water?
Yes, objects tend to float in sea water due to its high density compared to fresh water. The salt content in sea water makes it denser, providing more buoyancy for objects to float.
Why object float in water?
Objects float because the air in the object causes it to rise because it is less denser than water. Objects float better in salt water because the salt makes the water more denser helping even heavier objects to float. -Kimberly P.S. I learned all this in 4th grade!!!!!!!!!!!
What is forces that makes things float called?
The force that makes objects float in a fluid, such as water, is called buoyancy. It occurs when the weight of the displaced fluid is equal to the weight of the object, allowing it to stay afloat.
What makes objects float on water?
If an object is less dense than water, it floats. I don't know exactly why having less density than something else makes something float, but I believe it has to do with the weight of the particles. The lightest ones rise to the top, while the heaviest ones drop to the bottom. This can be seen when you add oil to water.
Why does salt create buoyancy in water?
The salt makes the water more dense ,so that objects can float on the water.
Why do you float better in the sea?
The more salt there is in water the more buoyant an object is. The salt makes the water dense. Objects only float if they have less density than salt.
How do objects float differently in salt water than in fresh water?
Objects float higher in salt water compared to fresh water because salt water is denser than fresh water. The higher density of salt water provides more buoyant force, causing objects to float higher. Additionally, salt water can also affect the rate at which objects sink or float due to changes in the water's viscosity and surface tension.
Does an egg float in salted water?
Yes, an egg will float in salted water because the increased density of the water due to the salt makes it easier for objects with lower density, like an egg, to float.
