Eggs float because of trapped air inside the shell. As the egg ages it becomes more buoyant since liquids inside the shell evaporate and are replaced by air. If you have an egg that is really floating a lot than be careful. That egg could be rotten and breaking it open may be very smelly. If you wish to sink the egg, then make a small hole in the shell and allow water to get into the egg, replacing the air.

What steps would you take to measure the density of an egg?

To measure the density of an egg, first, weigh the egg using a scale to obtain its mass. Next, submerge the egg in a graduated cylinder filled with water to measure the volume of water displaced, which corresponds to the egg's volume. Finally, calculate the density by dividing the mass of the egg by its volume (Density = Mass/Volume). Ensure the egg is at room temperature for accurate measurements.
