P7AM Dead Sea Float Experiment

22nd Apr 2021

In class today we carried out a science experiment where we recreated a version of the Dead Sea with some salt and water. Our test was to find out if an egg could float in salt water. Firstly, we tested what would happen to the egg in freshwater. After that, we dissolved salt in water to the point that the water became saturated. We the tested to see if the egg could float, and it did!
