Egg experiment

2 weeks ago at assembly Mrs King our principal Told  every single class.To try make an egg bounce! In our class. We got vinegar and 2 eggs .We put the two eggs in the vinegar and waited till the next day.In the morning we went to look at the eggs before class started. Most of the shell was floating on top in the water. 

Here's an example.We waited another day until we can test it.In the middle of the day we looked at the eggs and they felt so weird, rubbery, squishy and slimy. They still had a bit of the shell on the sides .We went outside to test the eggs .We got a ruler and a bucket so it doesn't make a mess.First we tried it at 10 cm.It bounced! Than we tried it at 20 cm.It popped! it sounded so weird when it popped .We all poked the yoke and it went all runny.The membrane, that's the part that held the egg inside, felt stretchy.Have you made an egg bounce?

  1. WOW Shae, it certinaly sounds like you have had fun trying this 'eggsperiment'....(ha ha) out. Why was most of the shell floating on top of the vinegar? What caused this? What are egg shells made out of?

    1. The vinegar devolved the shells to peel off.Egg shells are made out of calcimine
