Which sea is it easy to float pacific or Atlantic and why?

The Atlantic and Pacific are oceans, not "seas". The salinity is about the same, so there isn't much difference in being able to float. The Dead Sea has a very high salinity, and it's very easy for people to float there. Same with the Great Salt Lake.


When the increase in the salinity of seawater result in an increase or decrease in density?

If you compare the density of sea water, and then compared the extremely salty Dead Sea, you will find that the more salt in the water, the higher is the density.

Also, a ship will float lower on a fresh water lake, and float higher on salt water.

Yes, people can float in the Red Sea, because there is a large amount of salt in the Red Sea. Therefor, objects including people, have more buoyancy so we can float. If you do not know what buoyancy is, it is the ability to float
