One egg and two scoops of ice cream. --OR-- If you want the egg to float in water, you can dissolve salt or sugar in the water. === === Fresh eggs will not float when placed in water; they instead will lie sideways on the bottom of the container (such as when we place them in a pan for boiling.) As an egg ages it will lose water and carbon dioxide--these leach through the shell. This loss of contents creates an air pocket--actually, it enlarges the small air pocket at the 'pointed end' that all fresh eggs possess. As an egg ages it increasingly becomes more bouyant and begins to "stand up" when submerged. When an egg is old enough to become rotten (generally more than four weeks) it will float in water. This in fact is how I test eggs before I cook them, since I am single and don't use eggs very often. So two suggestions: first, if an egg's freshness is suspect, place it in a cup or glass of water; if it floats, throw it out. Otherwise, it's OK to cook. Second, avoid the notion of cracking a rotten egg. The hydrogen sulfide gas in a rotten egg is what we all know as the 'rotten egg' smell and could induce a run to the bathroom and the loss of stomach contents.

What is in the salt water why the egg float?
Salt water have a higher density.So it can produce enough upthrust to make the egg float.
Does Egg Float In Salt Water Or Fresh Water?
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.
Why a rotten egg will float in a fresh water?
During decomposition an egg gives off gas which collects within the shell. Eventually this collection of gas gives the egg enough bouancy to float.
Why do eggs float to the top in salt 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.
Who invented the egg flotation?
Are you talking about floating fresh eggs to make sure that they are really fresh? That has been going on for centuries and no one knows although it was probably a farmer's wife in the middle ages. If you are talking about a float, like in an egg-cream float, that was probably Frank Wisner of the Cripple Creek Brewing Company

2 paragraphs of how to make an egg float?
Only a boiled egg can float. (not the hard ones
Do salt and sugar and flour make a egg float?
No, salt, sugar, and flour alone will not make an egg float. The density of an egg is higher than that of salt, sugar, and flour, so the egg will sink in these substances. However, if you were to dissolve a large amount of salt or sugar in water to create a solution with a higher density than the egg, then the egg could float in that solution.
What do yodo to make an egg float?

How many teaspoons of vinegar does it take to make an egg to float?
The density of the average egg will be slightly greater than water, so it will sink. To make the egg float, make the water more dense by adding salt. For one cup of water, adding three tablespoons of salt should be about enough to make the egg float.
How much sugar does it take to make a egg float?
An egg will float in water with a sugar concentration of around 40% by weight. This means you would need to dissolve approximately 2.5 cups of sugar in 1 cup of water to make an egg float.
Does water and salt make an egg float?

Does sugar make an egg float also?
