An egg when placed in ordinary water sinks but floats when placed in brine. This is because
-
- density of brine is less than that of ordinary water
- density of brine is equal to that of ordinary water
- density of brine is greater than that of ordinary water
- None of these
Correct Option: C
Brine due to its high density exerts an upthrust which can balance the weight of the egg.
