Seller-provided details for this listing.
To try this fun and easy science experiment at home, you'll need just a few simple items: one egg, one cup of vinegar, and a clear jar or glass.
Here's how to do it:
1. Pour one cup of vinegar into the jar.
2. Gently place the egg into the vinegar.
3. Watch closely and you'll see bubbles forming around the egg. These bubbles are carbon dioxide gas being released.
4. Leave the egg in the vinegar for a full day.
After 24 hours, take the egg out and feel its texture. You'll notice that the eggshell is now soft. Here's why:
Eggs are covered in a hard shell made of calcium carbonate. When you place the egg in vinegar, which contains acetic acid, a chemical reaction occurs. This reaction releases carbon dioxide gas, which is what creates the bubbles you observed. Over time, the vinegar dissolves the calcium carbonate, leaving the egg soft and rubbery.
For a little extra fun, leave the egg out on the table for another day and see what changes happen next.
