What else can I help you with?
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
Why do things float in salt water but not salt water?
Salt water is denser than fresh (not salt) water.
Is salt the reason that things float?
not exactly. things that are less dense than water float. salt makes water more dense and therefore more things can float in it. ============================= (Notice that your rubber duckie floats in the bathtub, even though t here's no salt in your bath.)
Does objects that float in water float in salt water?
Yes. Salt water has a slightly higher density then fresh water which means its a little easier for things to float in salt water. So if it floats in fresh water it will certainly float in salt water.
What things will float in salt water and not in fresh water?
An egg is one such thing.
Why do things float easier on salt water than fresh water?
density
Why do thing float higher in salt water the?
Due to high density of sea water things float higher in sea water.
How does salt make things float?
It makes the water more dense.
Why does only light things float in salt water?
Whether things float or sink this depend only on the density , the density of the salt water is aprox. 1030 kilogram per meter cube so if you but things have density less than that they will float , things with higher density sink.
Do things float better in salt water or fresh water?
Things can float better in salt water, due to density. For a visual experience, try getting 2 cups, fill both with tap water, and put salt in one cup, then mix it in. Get 2 eggs, and put one in each cup, keep on adding salt to one cup, until the egg floats. I hope I answered your question!
Why does salt in water make objects float?
Things float in water if they are less dense than the water they are floating in. Putting salt in the water makes it more dense, so things that are a little more dense than ordinary water float in salt water.
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
