Instructions:

Line the glasses up next to each other and fill them with different amounts of water. The first should have just a little water while the last should almost full, the ones in between should have slightly more than the last.

MAKE A EGG FLOAT ON SALT WATER

FUN WITH SCIENCE

LEARN HOW TO MAKE AN EGG FLOAT IN SALT WATER

An egg sinks to the bottom if you drop it into a glass of ordinary drinking water but what happens if you add salt? The results are very interesting and can teach you some fun facts about density.

Required items:

  •     One egg
  •     Water
  •     Salt
  •     A tall drinking glass

Instructions:

    Pour water into the glass until it is about half full.
    Stir in lots of salt (about 6 tablespoons).
    Carefully pour in plain water until the glass is nearly full (be careful to not disturb or mix the salty water with the plain water).
    Gently lower the egg into the water and watch what happens.

what will be the happening?

Salt water is denser than ordinary tap water, the denser the liquid the easier it is for an object to float in it. When you lower the egg into the liquid it drops through the normal tap water until it reaches the salty water, at this point the water is dense enough for the egg to float. If you were careful when you added the tap water to the salt water, they will not have mixed, enabling the egg to amazingly float in the middle of the glass.
