Yes, it will eventually. When you add salt to water, you are increasing the density of the solution, but not the volume, because the salt dissolves (dissociates). Since density is mass divided by volume, there is a direct relationship between the solution's mass and its density. They increase together even as the volume remains constant. An egg will float in a salt solultion if the molarity is about 2.5 or above.

No. First it dissolves; when you add too much salt it sinks to the bottom.


Is a raw egg more dense than a boiled egg?

The density of an egg that I boiled was 1.02 * density of tap water. The density of a raw egg was 1.06 * the density of tap water. The mass of the egg did not change so the volume increased slightly. With a raw egg and a boiled egg covering in water, if you add salt and mix slowly you find that the boiled egg will float first and if you continue to add salt you get both to float. Interestingly, recipes for making a brine solution for food preparation frequently tell you to put a raw egg in water and add enough salt in solution to make the egg float. This assures enough salt for a good brine solution.

Why do eggs float to the top in salt water?

This had to do with density. When you put the egg into the water, it sinks as it is more dense than the water. However, if you add salt in the water, it becomes salt water and makes the water more dense than the egg so the egg can float. It is the same reason why people float in the dead sea. The dead sea is very salty and is more dense than humans. That's why we float so well in the dead sea.
