The only possible reason for that would be that after the object floated for a while,the salt ate a hole in it, the water poured into it, and it stopped floating.If the object doesn't corrode, dissolve, or get water-logged, then it might float insalty water and sink in fresh water, because salty water is always more densethan either fresh or distilled water.


Why does a perspex block sink in fresh water but floats in salty water?

A perspex block sinks in fresh water because it is denser than the water. In salty water, the added salt increases the water's density, causing the perspex block to float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, where an object will float if it is less dense than the fluid it is in.
