If an egg floats that means it is bad. (do not eat it)
Does not really have anything to do with salt.
"Take your eggs and place them in a bowl of water. If the egg is fresh, it will sink to the bottom and lie on its side. An older egg will stand up on one end and if the eggs are REALLY old, they may even float. "

Not sure if an egg will float however the higher the salt content of water the the easier things float , I think the max salt content of water is 24% (something like that) after that it wont take anymore
