One substance will float on another if its density is less. By adding salt you are increasing the density of the solution. As you add salt, at some point the density of the solution will reach and then exceed the density of the egg
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.
If a raw egg floats in water, it means that it is not fresh. This is because as eggs age, the air pocket inside them grows larger, causing them to become less dense and float.
When an egg floats in water, it means that the egg is no longer fresh. This is because as eggs age, air enters the egg through the porous shell, causing it to become less dense and float.
A ship floats deeper in fresh water than in sea water because fresh water is less dense than sea water due to a lower concentration of salts and minerals. This lower density causes less buoyant force to be exerted on the ship, making it float deeper in fresh water in order to displace an equivalent volume of the less dense liquid.

Of course. Fresh water floats on salt water, warmer water floats on cooler water, and ice floats on any water.

Salt water is denser than fresh.
Carrots float in salt solution because the salt increases the density of the water, causing the carrot to float. This is due to the principle of buoyancy, where objects with lower density than the surrounding liquid will float.
The density of the shell contents. Fresh eggs have very little air within the shell. While the shell does not appear so, it is very porous and as moisture leave the shell interior, it is replaced by air. The older the egg, the bigger the air bubble within.
An egg that sinks in water is fresh, while an egg that floats is not fresh.
freeze water as ice cubes then put it on water and it floats Liquid fresh water floats on salt water Warm water floats on cold water (water's greatest density is when it is 4 degrees Celsius).
Saltwater is a solution because you can get fresh water and some salt and mix it and then you get saltwater.
It all depends really, but if you put the egg in cold water you will get your answer. If it floats its rotten and if it sinks its still a farm fresh egg.
because following the density principle, the density of the egg compared to the density of the tap water is lesser....(the density principle states that an object or substance with lesser density will float on the surface of the substance or object which has the greater density...).....now,,,with salt,,, salt makes the density of the tap water to increase and increases also the salinity of the water making the egg float because the density of the water with salt is now greater than the density of the egg.... An egg will float when the density of the water is greater than the density of the egg. Adding salt increases the density of a salt water solution. Whether the egg floats or sinks depends on the condition of the egg as well as the amount of salt in the water. If an object is LESS dense than the solution that it is in, then it WILL float. If an object is MORE dense than the solution it is in, then it WILL NOT float. An egg is more dense than regular water; therefore, the egg will sink. But when you add salt to the water, you are making the solution more dense. The salt water's density becomes greater to the point that it is more dense than the egg. Because the egg is now LESS dense than the water, it floats.
I think that salty ice cube do float in water because ice bergs float it water and they're made of salty water. i think i depends on the density (Amount of salt) in the ice
