Using the definition of density, this science experiment shows how you can make an egg float on water.
Well, the eggs density is more than the fresh water above, but less than the salt water below. The egg finds its equilibrium of density between the two, allowing the egg to appear stuck in the middle.
Eggs are not always going to sink in a glass of water. Learn more about density with the ECHO Science Spotlight activity you can try at home!
Will it sink or float? The floating egg experiment is a simple and fun way for kids to get scientific at home this summer - and there is barely any mess, so it's good for parents, too!
This experiment deals with density (how heavy something is) and the effects are demonstrated using eggs. You'll also need two glasses, water, and table salt, as well as two eggs.
Easy saltwater experiment When science class is in your hands (or kitchen), you need something fun and easy. Maureen Kyle shows us an activity with saltwater, freshwater and floating eggs.
Adam Sherwinski talks to ciLiving host, Jaclyn Friedlander about his favorite planet Saturn and demonstrates a floating experiment ...
Science Sundays: Making Eggs Float In this edition of Science Sunday, we’re going to do a simple experiment that demonstrates buoyancy, or whether something floats. Buoyancy is driven by density.
The egg float test is a simple hack that can help you find out if your eggs are still fresh—it's like a mini science experiment in your kitchen.
The egg is held together by a semi-permeable membrane that allows water to pass through it. This is why the egg swells in size during the experiment. The discoloration in the vinegar and floating ...
A video captures an experiment in which immersing an egg in soda for 24 hours dissolved its shell and turned the egg into a rubbery, squeezable substance.
