What is an An address embedded in a file that links the file with an object?

It is poor programming practice resulting in undefined behaviour. Files should never store memory addresses (real or virtual), since there's no guarantee a valid object will always reside at the same location in memory, unless the programmer can be absolutely certain the object will outlive the file (such as when referring to active objects in memory via a temporary file).
To embed an object in a file, the object must be stored in an independent file. The file in which the object is embedded simply links to the object's file. In this way, whenever the object is updated (and saved), all files in which it is embedded will also be updated.

What is the difference between linking and embedding?
"Linking" refers to providing a "reference" to the source data; if the source is deleted, the link no longer functions; many different types of files, programs, and programming interfaces refer to displaying externally located data as linking. Linking is advantageous when the data might later change and the program or file that contains the link would benefit from having the latest version of the data. "Embedding" has a slightly different context depending on the context that you are using it. If you are referring to a file (such as a Flash file, Microsoft executable file, and so on), embedding refers to storing the data directly within the other data type. An executable can store Icon files, for example, which alter their presentation on the Desktop or Start Menu by showing an identifying image so users can tell programs apart visually. Embedding in a document file depends on the type of document file in question. Some document files store a copy of the data in the file, while other document formats simply imply that a plugin program is embedded into the document's data. Finally, applications can embed other applications within them during execution. For example, a program could be written to embed an Internet Explorer web viewer into a larger program. When embedding refers to "storing a copy", the benefit is that the source file can be deleted without affecting this dependent file. The disadvantage, of course, is that updates to the source data require updating the dependent file through whatever means available (applications have to be recompiled, documents have to be edited, etc). When embedding refers to "running a copy of a program within another program", there are many advantages: less code has to be used each time a component is reused, the component can be upgraded independently of the main program, and a component can crash without crashing the entire application (possibly including recovering data from the failed component). The disadvantage of embedding is, of course, memory usage will be higher than having a single, unified program.

Why embedded object document requires more size than linked object?
Because a linked object is created and stored in a separate source file and then it is linked to the destination file, while an embedded object is created in a separate source file but then it is inserted into the destination file , becoming the part of that file.
