Why does a rotten egg float but fresh egg sinks?
I'm not sure, but it might have something to do with the air pocket in the top of the egg. When an egg is fresh, the air pocket is small. As the egg ages, some of the water evaporates through the pores in the egg and so the air pocket gets bigger. Perhaps this is why a very old egg would float.Addition -The rotten egg floats, because bacteria is eating away some of the egg, which is making it lighter. Air pockets do play a role, because in this case, the bacteria is eating away the egg, which is making it lighter, and in the process is creating small air pockets, making it float.
