It is easier to float in the ocean than in a swimming pool. Do you know why?
Ocean water is full of salt - and salt water can hold up more weight than fresh water. See for yourself! (Ask an adult to help you.) You will need: 3 cups warm water; A wide-mouth jar（罐）; Salt; A spoon; A potato. You will do: 1. Pour 1.5 cups of warm water into the jar. 2. Add 1/3 cup of salt. 3. Stir(搅拌) until the salt is completely dissolved(完全溶解) 4. Add another l.5 cups of water. Pour it slowly over the back of the spoon into the jar so that the two kinds of water will not mix together. 5. Softly place the potato into the jar. Don't drop it. What will happen: The potato will sink - but only halfway! Why: Salt water is heavier than fresh water, so it will stay on the bottom. The fresh water will remain on the top. The potato is heavier than the fresh water, but it is lighter than the salt water. That is why the potato will sink only halfway down.
