AnswerSalt has nothing to do with it.A fresh egg will sink in water. Stale eggs will have propagated gases within them, causing them to float in water.
This is a classic test for egg freshness.
What is written above may be part true, but the salt has a lot to do with it because without it with the same egg withing the same 5 minutes with salt it floats and without it, it dose not.
Fresh eggs float in salt water because the density of salt water is more than the density of the egg. But fresh eggs do not float in fresh water because the density of water is less than that of the egg. Salt increases the density of water.
This had to do with density. When you put the egg into the water, it sinks as it is more dense than the water. However, if you add salt in the water, it becomes salt water and makes the water more dense than the egg so the egg can float. It is the same reason why people float in the dead sea. The dead sea is very salty and is more dense than humans. That's why we float so well in the dead sea.
That indicates that the average density of an egg is greater than the density of pure water but less than that of salt water. Salt water has more density the regular/pure water and the more salt you add the more it floats.
Salt water have a higher density.So it can produce enough upthrust to make the egg float.

an egg floats by its self
One method of determining if an egg floats in salt water is by dissolving salt in a container of water until the egg floats. Another method involves gradually adding salt to a container of water while placing the egg in to see if it floats. Both methods rely on the principle that the density of the water increases as salt is added, causing the egg to float when the water becomes dense enough.
It floats.
i did this project before the egg floats because the salt has a lot of molecules
An egg floats in a salt solution because the density of the salt solution is higher than that of the egg, causing the egg to float. In fresh water, the density is lower than the egg, causing it to sink.
that the water with salt well make the egg float
Egg floats only when the density of the salt solution is almost equal to the density of the egg.The density is made equal by making the salt solution saturaed i.e by adding more salt so that the net mass increases and thus increasing the density. Thus by displacing a small amount of water,the egg floats
An egg floating in salt water. The salt makes the water more dense. Since the egg is less dense it floats!
Density is physical, that's what 'egg-floats-in-salt-water-' is all about.
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.
Salt water is denser than fresh.
