Floatation or boyancy is accomplished when a body displaces more mass than it possesses. Basically, if the water is more dense than the egg, the egg will float on the water kind of like oil on water. The salt dissolves in the water making it more dense until you reach the point where the water is more dense than the egg and then the egg floats.
