Some things float more than others because, it would be more buoyant than the fluid it is in, or an easier way to say it is the item weighs more than the fluid it is in. Salt makes the fluid more dense and makes most things float when it is in that fluid. Some things sink because, it is more buoyant than the fluid it is in.

An object floats when it weighs more than the the weight of the fluid it displaces
