Vinegar has a density greater than that of the egg. So by Archimedes's principle, the egg floats on it.
The bubbling is due to the action of the acid in vinegar, acetic acid on the shell of the egg which contains CaCO3. The reaction is
2CH3COOH + CaCO3 ----------> (CH3COO)2Ca + H2O + CO2.
The carbon dioxide released leads to the bubbling.
