From the observation that a raw egg floats in concentrated salt water but sinks in tap water, the correct conclusion is:

**A raw egg is less dense than salt water but more dense than tap water.**

This means that the density of the raw egg is such that it is denser than tap water (causing it to sink) but less dense than the concentrated salt water (causing it to float).
