float?

jdoe0001 · Answer

the dead sea I think is about the lowest point on the planet, or one of the lowest
the water is banked, doesn't get anything or goes out
and usually lowlands like so, are hot in temperature

besides the Dead Sea has all kind of volcanic chemicals

Eggg density is about 1.03 and water density is 1.0. Therefore the egg will sink in ordinary tap water. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/salty-science-floating-eggs-in-water/

The Dead Sea has a density of 1.24 (one of the highest water densities in the world). The egg will easily float in Dead Sea Water. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Sea Ordinary salt water has a density of 1.025 and so the egg will sink.
