The density of the egg was greater than that of the water at first, this causes the egg to sink to the bottom of the beaker. However, when the generous amount of salt is poured and dissolved into the water, the density of the solution immediately increases with the dissolved salt in it, thus the density of the egg is now lesser than the density of the solution and causes it to float instead of sinking to the bottom of the beaker.
