Why does salt water make stuff float than fresh water?
Salt water has a greater density than fresh water. So the same object will foat higher in salt water than in fresh, and some things will foat in salt water that are too dense to float in fresh water.
What are some objects that do not float on water?
Some objects that do not float on water include rocks, metals such as iron and lead, and most types of glass. These items are denser than water, causing them to sink when placed in water.
What are some things that can float in water?
Objects that are less dense than water can float in it. Some examples include wood, plastic, cork, and certain types of metals like aluminum. Additionally, objects that are hollow or have air pockets can also float in water.
Why do some object sink in sugarwater but float in salt water?
Depending upon the specific concentration of salt (which you haven't stated) salt water can be substantially denser than sugarwater. From a chemical perspective (rather than a culinary perspective) the term salt includes a large number of ionic substances, in which relatively heavy elements are included, much heavier than the relatively light elements (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen) found in salt, or in water.
How do you figure out if things float better in salt water or in normal water?
what you do is an experiment. get a bowl with 3 cups of normal water. then get another bowl with 3 cups of salt water. then get some items to test it with. after you tried an item clean it and dry it. do the test more than once
What is the answer to the question does an object float in saltwater freshwateror neither?
It's far from clear what the actual question is. Some objects float in both salt and fresh water, some objects float in neither, and some objects float in one but not the other. Any object that floats in fresh water will float in salt water, but the reverse is not true.
Can you put salt in water to make an object float?
Yes, adding salt to water increases its density, which can make some objects that would normally sink, like eggs, float. By altering the density of the water, the buoyant force exerted on the object can be increased to make it float.
Does salt water float?
On some liquids it will float, on others it will not.
What type of objects will float on top of water?
The types of objects that will float on water are foil, most rubber, and some plastic.
Why does salt water make stuff float than fresh water?
Salt water has a greater density than fresh water. So the same object will foat higher in salt water than in fresh, and some things will foat in salt water that are too dense to float in fresh water.
Why do some objects float and others dont?
Because some objects are a lot denser than water so the sink and others are less denser so they float

What floats on water?
Objects that are less dense than water will float on water. This includes things like wood, plastic, and some metals. Buoyant objects displace enough water to create an upward force that helps them float.

Do peanuts float in fresh water?
Yes. The salt stabalizes them in the water. If you have ever heard of the dead sea, anything really can float in there. If there is salt in water a peanut can float.
