Question

Why don't eggs float in sugar water?

Answer 1

the egg is less dense than salt or sugar water.the egg weighs less than the solution it displaces and therefore, there is a large enought buoyant force to hold the egg up

Answer 2

An egg sinks in plain water because itis denser than water. ... The egg floatsin salt or sugar water, if it is salty or sugary enough, because the egg isless dense than the salt or sugar water. The egg weighs less than thesolution it displaces and, therefore, there is a large enough buoyant force to hold it up.
