What else can I help you with?
Would salt effect a egg?
Yes, salt can affect an egg by changing its osmotic balance. When an egg is placed in a salt solution, water moves out of the egg through osmosis, causing it to shrink and dehydrate. This can also impact the texture and taste of the egg.
What happens when you soak the egg in salt water?
When you soak an egg in salt water, the egg will float because the salt water is denser than the egg, decreasing its overall density. This is due to the process of osmosis, where water moves from an area of low salt concentration (inside the egg) to an area of high salt concentration (the salt water), causing the egg to float.
Does an egg have more dense then water?
The density of liquids really depends on the suspended matter in it. If you have really dense concentration of salt in water, yes it could be denser than an egg. If you have merely a weak solution of salt, then the egg is denser... it depend on how much salt you have in the water.
What happens to an egg when placed in salt water?
The egg will decrease in size (water will exit) if the shell is removed by some means before the egg is placed in the solution. If the shell has not been removed, however, not much will happen as the shell is basically impermeable.
What are the materials for floating an egg in salt?
I would think water. What you would do, is take a glass of water, peel the egg, put salt in, then put the egg in, and I think that is it. I haven't tried it out, but I am pretty sure that's all to it.
What effect does the amount of salt have on the floatability of an egg?
It is hard and not liqiud so it does not make an egg float.
Would salt effect a egg?

What is the salt content in an egg?
there is no salt in an egg, salt is an inorganic substance
What does salt do to a raw egg?
Salt makes a raw egg salty.
Will a egg float in salt water?
Yes, and egg will float in salt water.
What is the density of an egg and salt?
Salt water has a higher density than the egg.
What happens when you soak the egg in salt water?
When you soak an egg in salt water, the egg will float because the salt water is denser than the egg, decreasing its overall density. This is due to the process of osmosis, where water moves from an area of low salt concentration (inside the egg) to an area of high salt concentration (the salt water), causing the egg to float.
Can a egg flot in salt water?
a egg can float in salt water because the water is denser than the egg
Which water requires the greatest amount of salt to float an egg?
There aren't different types of water (unless you count water with different levels of impurities, but in most cases the impurities will have the same effect as the salt, so it is just the purer water that needs more 'added' salt)
Why does an egg float on salt water only?
An egg floats in salt water because the density of the salt water is higher than the density of the egg. The higher density of the salt water creates an upward buoyant force on the egg, causing it to float.
Will an egg float in 1 teaspoon of salt water or 8 teaspoon of salt water?
How much salt water is present is not important, the problem is what is the concentration of salt in the water. The saltier it is, the denser the salt water becomes. If the salt water is denser in comparison to the density of the egg (which will more or less vary with each egg), then the egg will float; if not, then the egg will sink.
What should happen when a egg has its shell carefully removed and is then placed in salt water?
When an egg with its shell removed is placed in salt water, the water will move from the egg into the salt water due to osmosis. This will cause the egg to shrivel and shrink in size as water leaves its membrane to balance out the concentration of salt inside and outside the egg.
