If you just barely float in salt water, you will sink in fresh water.
Why can crude oil float in salt water but sink in fresh water?
because of the salt in the water
Why does a carrot float in salt water but sink in fresh water?
A carrot will float in salt water because salt water is denser than the carrot. This creates buoyant force that allows the carrot to float. In fresh water, the carrot is denser than the water, causing it to sink.
Will a ball float higher in salt or fresh water?
Salt water is more buoyant than fresh water is, because salt water is slightly more dense. -- Anything that floats in salt water will float higher than it does in fresh water. -- Anything that sinks in salt water will sink slower than it does in fresh water. -- Anything that just barely floats in salt water may possibly sink in fresh water.
What makes an object float in salt water and sink in fresh water?

Does salt water float or sink?
S-I-N-K .
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.
Is it easier to sink or float in salt water?
it is easier to float, salt water has a higher density. The more salt, the easier it is to float.
Does salt water float over fresh water?
Yes, because salt water is denser than fresh water, it will typically float on top of fresh water in a layered system called stratification. This is due to the differences in salinity and density between the two types of water.
Will an egg float in salt or fresh water?
An egg will float in salt water because the salt makes it denser and allows the egg to stay near the surface. But in regular water it will sink straight to the bottom.
What is it easier to float in salt water than fresh water?
Because salt water is denser. If you pour salt water and fresh water [one with food coloring] into a glass, the salt water will sink below the fresh water. You are only a bit denser than salt water.
Will an egg float in salt water or tap water?
