Dancing Raisins & Magic Eggs

Try these fun experiments at home.



A Magic Egg
Fresh eggs will sink if dropped into water, but this egg is suspended in the middle of this glass - how is that possible? 

The magic word is density.

You need:
A tall glass
Water
6 tablespoons of salt.
  • Mix the salt with half a glass of water - give it 10 min to dissolve.
  • Carefully pour fresh water into the glass - holding the glass on an angle helps to stop the fresh and salt waters mixing.
  • Gently drop the egg into the glass.
