Conclusions
Egg Float Project
This project site documents my Egg Float Project on water density. This shows the effect of salt on water density and egg and stuff.
The Picture
This evidence shows the effects of salt water on the egg.
In fresh water the egg sinks
In varied density of Salt water the egg floats
Additional Info
The mass of different objects varies greatly.
Optimum Efficiency
We collected six glasses, six eggs, water and salt. We labeled the glasses for each level of density based on the amount of salt...see the picture.
About the results
Clearly, even with a small amount of salt in the water, the density is changed and the egg rises. In normal tap water, the egg sinks.
