In fact the level of salt in water causes the opposite. The higher the salt content, the less likely you are to sink. The Dead sea is my example for this.
To make an ice cube sink, you can add salt to the water before freezing the ice cube. The salt lowers the freezing point of water, making the ice cube denser than the surrounding water and causing it to sink.
Water is often referred to as a universal solvent because many substances dissolve in it. These unique properties of water result from the ways in which individual H2O molecules interact with each other. Salt is one subsatances that will dissolve in water rather that sink in the bottom.
Ice can't sink hunny :) It is less dense then water (density= 1.0) and therefore, it can only float, not ever sink.
If you add less salt to the water, the overall density of the salt water would decrease, making it less dense than the fresh water. As a result, the salt water would no longer sink below the fresh water and they may mix together more easily.
The dead sea. The level of salt is so high that it will make it very hard to sink.
An egg will sink in water but will float in salt water. An egg will sink faster in hot water than it will in cold water.
Sink water or water without salt.
People can't sink in salt water because if salt is added to water the substance in it will become less denser like the dead sea is so salty that you can easily do yoga or sit and read a book!!!
The body of water you will never sink in is The Dead Sea, because it has allot of salt and the salt will push you to the top of the water THEREFORE you WILL NOT sink.
Salt sink in water only for a short time because is denser than water; after this salt is dissolved in water.
depends on the concentration of salt. The higher the concentration of salt the more likely you are to float.
salt water
i think it is ppeople because they float in salt water and sink in fresh water.
Salt is very soluble in water.
An object would sink faster in salt water because salt water is denser than fresh water. The higher density in salt water creates more buoyant force, allowing objects to sink faster than in fresh water.
the density of the water, temperature (warm temps) and salinity (amount of salt in the water) could make ocean water sink (-:
the salt water is denser because of the salt
