Why do eggs float on salty water but not on ordinary water?

Eggs float in salty water because the density of the salty water is higher than that of the egg, causing it to float. In ordinary water, the density of the egg is higher than that of the water, so it sinks. The increased density in the salty water creates more buoyant force, allowing the egg to float.
