whats the control, dependent, and independent variable of the egg floating in salt expirment
In an experiment where an egg is floated in saltwater, the control variable is what remains constant throughout the experiment. In this case, it could be using a normal egg (without any alterations or additions) and floating it in water without any salt.
The independent variable is the factor that is deliberately changed or manipulated in the experiment. In this case, it is the amount of salt added to the water. You can have different trials with different concentrations of saltwater to observe the effects on the egg's buoyancy.
The dependent variable is the outcome that is measured or observed as a result of changing the independent variable. In this experiment, it would be the egg's buoyancy or whether it floats or sinks when placed in the saltwater solutions of different concentrations.
