Why do rotten eggs float in water?
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.
What makes an egg soaked in water get bigger?

What happens to the mass of a tree when it dies?
The mass remains the same, but it begins to change to other things- all with the same mass. At first, the part of the mass that is water will evaporate to the air. Then the part that is mainly carbon is eaten by insects and fungi. Eventually, all of the mass has been changed to rotted wood, insect droppings, carbon dioxide.
