Probably on the floor at least once.
It's possible for the results to be anything between 50 heads and 50 tails.
The most probable result ... if the coin is honest, fair, and balanced, like Fox News #@%$&#*&@ ...
is 25 heads and 25 tails.
There is no way to predict exactly what the result will be. If it were possible to know in advance,
then coin-tosses could not be used to gamble or to decide the answer to a question.

If a coin is tossed 5 times what is the probability it will land on heads?
There is a 50% chance that it will land on heads each toss. You need to clarify the question: do you mean what is the probability that it will land on heads at least once, exactly once, all five times?
What is coin toss mean?
When you toss or flip a coin it's a 50/50 chance of it landing heads or tails up, so the phrase coin toss is used to describe a situation that can go either way.
What is the probability of getting tails twice in a row?
The probability of tossing a coin twice and getting tails both times is 1 in 4, or 25%. If you have already tossed a coin and had it land on tails, the probability that it will land on tails again the next time you toss it is 50%.
If you toss a coin 1000 times and find that it comes up head 532 times what is the probability of getting a tail?
The probability is still 50%
