Salt water. Colligative properties of water mean that the more particles in water, regardless what they are, will raise the boiling point, the solubility, and ultimately allow for greater bouyancy.

∙ 11y agoAssuming that the questioner is asking about an experiment in which salt is added to a vessel containing pure water and an egg lying on the bottom of the vessel until the egg floats, the choice of which salt to add depends primarily on making sure that the salt is sufficiently soluble in water to raise the density of the aqueous solution formed high enough to exceed the density of the egg. Very low solubility salts such as silver iodide would not work. Most reasonably soluble salts should work, but there might be some that do not.

Do objects float the same in salt water and fresh water?
objects float better because chemicals help make the objects float higher. the more salt the higher the things go
Will an egg float in salt water or tap water?
Eggs float in salt water but not in tap water, which is a fresh water. This is because salt water is more dense than fresh water.
Does salt float in water?
Yes . Egg float in salt water because salt water is much densier than pure water
Can an egg float in salt water or fresh water?
salt water
Can a egg can or can't float in water?
an egg can float in salt water.
Can you put salt in water to make an object float?
If the object does not quite float in water, adding salt to the water might make the object float, yes.
Will salt in water make a coke can float?
it depends on how much salt is in the water. if there is enough, the soda can will float.
Will salt make an egg float?
yes, salt will make a egg float in water not on a table though
Why does salt water make things float?
salt makes the water denser, so things that are now less dense than the salt water will float
What is in the salt water why the egg float?
Salt water have a higher density.So it can produce enough upthrust to make the egg float.
Does salt make you float in water?
Yes, it does
How do you make an egg float on water?
Put salt in the water
How much salt does it take to make a brick float on water?
for a brick to float on water 2 thirds of the mixture should be salt
How does salt make a quarter float?
it makes bubbles in water which has enough energy to make it float
How much salt does it take to make an appl e float?
An apple can actually float in water that is not treated with salt. Adding salt will encourage the apple to float to the top. When you add salt to water, it allows the water to become more dense.
Why do eggs falt in salt water?
Eggs float in salt water and sink in fresh water because salt water is more dense. Density is a measure of how much 'matter' is in a certain space, adding salt to water adds 'matter' so makes it more dense. The Dead Sea is 33% salt so even people who can't swin can float in it.
Does water and salt make an egg float?
yes
