Egg floating experiment|science experiment

Today we are going to show egg is float in the salt water


materials
1.glass
2.water
3.salt
4.egg



Now let's understand what just happened here: An egg sinks in salt water as salt is denser as compared to fresh water. For any object to float, the weight of the object should be lesser than or equal to the buoyant force. Buoyancy or buoyant force is an upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object. The weight of the water displaced = Density of the water * Volume * Gravity Obviously, since the density of salt water is more than density of fresh water, hence the weight of the water displaced will be greater in the case of the salt water, resulting in a greater buoyant force. This greater buoyancy opposes the weight of the egg and hence stops it from sinking. Infact, the more salt in the water, the more buoyant an object becomes. In this case, the density of the salt water is greater than the density of the egg. Adding the salt in the water increased the density of the water there by causing the eggs to float. Do try this experiment at home or at school with your friends and let us know how you enjoyed floating eggs :)
