The vinegar isn't absorbed by the egg.
The vinegar will disintegrate the egg shell and the salt will suck out all the water and shrivel the egg.
vinegar is a hypotonic solution if you would like an example take an egg and put it in to a glass of vinegar and the egg will swell.
The eggs won't react, it is the vinegar that acts on the egg. The acid in the vinegar will corrode the calcium in the egg shell, causing the egg to become soft, like rubber.
When an egg is soaked in vinegar the vinegar reacts with the calcium carbonate of the shell by breaking it down into its simplest forms. (Calcium and carbon dioxide.) Therefore causing a chemical change.
Yes. The vinegar helps dissolve the shell surface, giving way to the membrane underneath that makes the egg "bouncy."
No, vinegar has a higher concentration of water than an egg. Therefore, if an egg is placed in vinegar, then it will gain mass because vinegar is hypotonic to the egg.
The egg shell is basically calcium. Vinegar is a weak acid, and "etches" the calcium egg shell slightly. Since the water is colored, it leaves behind that coloring in the slightly softened surface of the egg shell.
Why does an egg fold if you put it in vinegar?
The vinegar makes the egg soft because, the vinegar has a chemical reaction due to the Carbon Dioxide in the vinegar which has an effect on the egg. That's why the egg's shell dissolves off, and the egg gets soft.Correction:A raw egg will NOT bounce when dropped into vinegar. The egg must sit in vinegar for about 24 hours, so that the vinegar will react with the carbon dioxide in the egg shell, before the egg will become soft and rubbery. See link below.

The circumference of an egg in vinegar varies for each egg.
Soak the egg in vinegar for about 2 days then carefully bounce it in a sink or another place where if it cracked it would be easy to clean. Or you might want to measure the height of how your going to bounce it. If it's higher then 6 '' it'll crack instintly.
Vinegar would do nothing to replace an egg.
