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.
Because the density of the egg is lower than the density of the saltwater Because the density of the egg is lower than the density of the saltwater

add salt to the water
An apple can actually float in water that is not treated with salt. Adding salt will encourage the apple to float to the top. When you add salt to water, it allows the water to become more dense.
Add about 6 tablespoons of salt to regular water - Check out the link below
you put it in a cup of water or something that has water in it
The egg does not float with just baking soda and water you must add a lot of salt to the mixture and then the egg will float.
No. First it dissolves; when you add too much salt it sinks to the bottom.
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.
Yes, one example will be: add salt to the water.
you can add salt to water to make the egg float because of it's density
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.
