That depends entirely on the liquid. If you are mixing salt into water, then yes. But only if you mix in enough. Fresh water has a density of 1.0, while saltwater has a density of 1.025. The more salt, the higher the density. Since the egg's density stays the same, you should get it to float if you mix in enough salt.

Water vapor liquid?

Fog is a good example of water vapor. It is made up of molecuels of water, though some particles are much larger but still light enough to float on the air.


If enough energy is added to a solid it will change state what is possible Particles in the solid will?

When enough energy is added to a solid, the particles within it will gain kinetic energy, causing them to vibrate more vigorously. As the energy increases, these vibrations may overcome the forces holding the particles in fixed positions, leading to a transition from the solid state to the liquid state (melting). In this liquid state, the particles are still close together but can move past one another, allowing for flow.


What is a state where particles take the shape of the container and have a definite volume?

The state you are describing is a liquid. In a liquid, particles are close together but can move past one another, allowing the liquid to take the shape of its container while still maintaining a definite volume.


Does ice float in cold water?

Yes ice will float in cold water or any water for the matter. For example icebergs are in fridge cold water (for the ocean can be extremely cold because of the salt and thus takes a colder temperature to freeze) and this still are afloat. Ice will actually float in warm or hot water for a bit until it is dissolved. So yes it can float in any sort of water despite the temperature.


When water evaporates to become water vapor it goes through a?

Physical change. It is still water, it has simply changes from one form to another. Like ice freezes from liquid water... It's still water just a different state.

What liquids can a needle float on?

A needle can be made to float on very still water.


What 2 factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?

The weight of the object must be less than the weight of the water it displaces (buoyancy force). Also, the density of the object must be less than the density of the fluid it is placed in (Archimedes' principle).


An object in a liquid has a buoyant force and is lifted by the weight of the liquid which it displaces?

Not all objects float. A given object may or may not weigh more than the weight of the liquid which it displaces. So while there is a lifting force, it is not necessarily true that the object in question will actually be lifted by that force. It may still sink.APEX :An object's buoyant force and weight aren't the same thing* True !- Amburr Minajj !However, it is still true that when an object does float, it is being lifted by the weight of the liquid that it displaces, and that's what the question asks, Amburr Minajj. I answered the question, and you ostentatiously crossed out my answer and replaced it with an observation that fails to answer the question. This is not an improvement. -- David6023

Is it true liquids volume does not change no matter what shape its container has?

Yes because the amount of liquid is still the same, nothing is added or taken away If the temperature and pressure are unchanged then the volume of the liquid is unchanged regardless of the container it is in.


Is hot custard a solid or a liquid?

it is probably a liquid because if you even make it hot, it will still be liquid.

Does everything float in space?

No, not everything floats in space. Objects with mass are still affected by gravitational forces, so they can be in motion or orbit around celestial bodies. In the absence of gravity, objects or particles with mass still have inertia and will continue to move unless acted upon by another force.


Are they large gaps between particles in a liquid?

No, there are very small gaps between particles in a liquid compared to a gas. In a liquid, particles are still close together but have enough space to move past one another, giving liquids their ability to flow.


Is bromine a solid liquid or gas when the particle arrangement is close together but random?

Bromine would be in the liquid state. This is because in a liquid state, the particles are close together but still have enough energy to move around and flow past one another.
