The substances inside of the egg, yolk, embryo and surrounding fluid, as well as the surface area of the egg allow for the egg to float. This is the same principle that allows you to float in the ocean, namely that increase of surface area equals a decreased mass per square inch.

Can an egg float better with salt?
An egg will sink in fresh water. Salt water is denser than fresh water, which allows the egg to float.
What is the background research on Egg Flotation?
eggs float better with water and salt but they do not float in just water
What effects does the amount of salt have on floatability of an egg?
The larger the salt concentration in the water, the more quickly the egg will achieve flotation. Adding salt to the water will cause the egg to float.
What things will float in salt water and not in fresh water?
An egg is one such thing.
What happens when you put a egg in salt water?
The egg should have its water or substance in the egg come out through the cell membrane. :)
How mush salt can float a egg?
salt in water makes water denser when dissolved, making egg float.
How egg float in salt water funfacts?
well an egg can float in salt water because of the mass and density of it makes it easier to float
What makes an egg float salt water or regular water?
Salt water.
What makes the egg float in the salt water?
Well... The salt in the water makes the egg float because the water becomes more dense than just plain water
Why does an egg need salt to float?
the salt makes the water denser
Why do eggs float to the top in salt water?
This had to do with density. When you put the egg into the water, it sinks as it is more dense than the water. However, if you add salt in the water, it becomes salt water and makes the water more dense than the egg so the egg can float. It is the same reason why people float in the dead sea. The dead sea is very salty and is more dense than humans. That's why we float so well in the dead sea.
Can salt water make an egg float?
Yes , because salt adds density to the water making it more dense than the egg - which makes the egg float ! (:
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 do a egg look like when you put it in salt water?
it makes the egg float
Will a egg float in salt water?
Yes, and egg will float in salt water.
Does Egg Float In Salt Water Or Fresh Water?
Fresh eggs float in salt water because the density of salt water is more than the density of the egg. But fresh eggs do not float in fresh water because the density of water is less than that of the egg. Salt increases the density of water.
Does an egg float in water mixed with salt?
An egg does float in water that is mixed with salt, because salt provides more density in the water, and ,therefore, allows an egg to float.
