Why fruit floats?

Its probably due to the overall density of the fruit. Should it be composed mostly of air (or more buoyant substances, like coconuts do), then its overall density would be lower than water, resulting in a fruit that floats on water.

Why does the Fruit in Jelly floats to the top while canning?

During canning, the fruit floats to the top of the jar because of buoyancy and the heat involved in the process. As the fruit heats up, air trapped inside it expands and escapes, making it less dense than the surrounding syrup or liquid. Additionally, as the jar is sealed and cooled, the syrup may become denser, allowing the lighter fruit to rise. This phenomenon is common in canning and is typically not a concern for the preservation process.

Will fruit float in saltwater?

Yes, fruit can float in saltwater due to the increased buoyancy from the higher density of the saltwater compared to freshwater. The salt in the water increases its density, making it more likely for objects, including fruit, to float. However, whether a specific type of fruit floats or sinks can also depend on its density and structure. Generally, fruits with lower density than saltwater will float.
