What happens when fresh water is added to salt water?
You get lesser salty water. The fresh water and salt watwr will diffuse together. In aquatic ecology sense, area where fresh water meet with sea water is brackish water.
Difference between seawater and fresh water?
Sea water contains alot more minerals, mostly salt.
Will salt water remain frozen longer than fresh water?
Yes, salt water will remain frozen longer than fresh water due to its lower freezing point. The presence of salt in the water lowers the freezing point, requiring colder temperatures to turn it into a solid state.
Does fresh water have salt?
Depends how much you put in it Freshwater does not contain salt it is Hydrogen and Oxygen Sea Water is full of it but it varies from sea to sea. for instance the the Dead sea contains so much salt that it is possible to float on top of it
Why does an egg sink in fresh water but float in salt water but stays in the middle when pour water into salt water?
Eggs, water, floating.An egg doesn't float in fresh water but since salt water is more dense than fresh water, it has a better chance of floating in the salt water. The greater buoyant force allows the egg to float in the salt water, if salty enough.More explanationAn egg sinks in fresh water but not in salt water because fresh water is not as dense. In order for something to float, the buoyant force has to be greater than or equal to the weight of the object. The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid that is displaced by the object. To figure out the weight of the water displaced you multiply the density of the water by the volume and then multiply that by gravity. The density of the fresh water is less than the density of the salt water, therefore the weight of the water displaced will be greater in the case of the salt water, resulting in a greater buoyant force.The more salt in water the more bouyant an object becomes. The salt makes the water more denser. Check out the dead sea. Most salt content in any lake or sea. The density of the salt water is greater than the density of the egg. Items sink if their own density is greater than the density of whatever they are trying to float in. Items float to the top if their density is less than the density of what they are floating in, and items hang in the middle if the densities are the same. Adding in the salt gives the water a greater density than the water did had before, so the egg doesn't float in freshwater.Did you know?A fresh egg will sink in fresh water but it will float in salty water. A rotten egg will float in fresh water.

Are sea turtles fresh or salt water animals?
A clue is in their name - sea turtle - sea is salt water.
Why sea water and freshwater do not have same density?
Sea water typically has a higher density than freshwater because it contains more dissolved salts and minerals. These dissolved substances add mass to the water, increasing its density. Temperature and pressure also play a role in affecting the density of water.
Are sea anemones salt water or fresh water animals?
Fresh water animals.
What is denser fresh or sea water?
Salt water is denser than fresh water.
