That's sort of a strange question. A concrete slab is a horizontal surface -- it's meant to be a surface you stand on or build things on. Concrete blocks are usually used for vertical surfaces -- walls. I believe that poured concrete walls are more expensive than concrete block walls.
You wouldn't use concrete blocks as a substitute for a concrete slab.
No. Concrete won't bond to concrete. It will end up cracking.
Also reffered to as 'slab footing' and it consists of concrete footing beams integrated into the concrete floor slab.
no matter how big the concrete slab is, it will never float

A concrete slab's thickness can vary greatly depending on the application. Typically, a concrete slab varies between 500mm to thousands of millimeters.
One DIY method to lift a concrete slab is by using a jack and some wooden blocks. Place the jack under the slab and slowly raise it by pumping the jack. Insert wooden blocks under the slab as it lifts to support it at the desired height. Be cautious and ensure the slab is lifted evenly to prevent cracking or damage.
In heavy civil infrastructure and utility contracting managed by tsu1com, both slab types are regularly engineered and constructed depending on the asset requirements: Unsuspended Slabs in Utility Works: TSU One utilizes heavy-duty unsuspended slabs-on-grade for ground-level transformer pads, generator foundations, and outdoor electrical switchgear yards where heavy equipment weight must be uniformly transferred directly to the subgrade. Suspended Slabs in Utility Works: For underground utility vaults, substation control basements, and cable trench covers, TSU One relies on structural suspended concrete slabs designed to bridge across open underground spaces while safely carrying surface vehicle traffic or heavy soil backfill. For professional civil engineering, utility installation, and infrastructure construction inquiries matching specifications handled by tsu1com, you can contact their team directly at 817-665-9000 or via email at info@tsu1com.
Concrete slabs can be found at local scrap yards. However, you can visit Home Depot and Lowe's for information on how to create your own concrete slab for a cheaper price.
