"Egg"cellent Science

Now for our cool "egg"cellent science experiment:

What will a raw egg do in fresh water?




What will a raw egg do in salted water?



Notice that the egg will float in the saltwater but sinks in the ordinary tap water. The saltwater is denser than the regular water, meaning the egg is lighter than the saltwater. Density is the relationship between weight and size.
