the density in the water causes it to float when you add more salt and less water.Just like the dead sea

Will flotation occur if the buoyant force is equal to the weight of an object?

Yes. In this special case the object will not float to the surface but will maintain whatever position (depth) it currently has, neither rising nor sinking. This may meet with your definition of flotation.

No, menstruation does not occur if the egg is fertilized. Instead, the fertilized egg implants in the uterus to begin pregnancy. If fertilization does not occur, then the uterine lining sheds during menstruation.


Why does an egg float when salt is added?

Adding salt to the water increases its density. On adding certain quantity of salt, the density of water becomes greater than that of egg. So by law of flotation, as the mass of water (salted) displaced by egg is greater than its own mass, the egg floats.
