well, i think its because the egg is made of calcium carbonate and the acid in the vinegar dissolves the shell because they do not cooperate.
Vinegar is actually acetic acid(ethanoic acid). The outer layer of egg is made up of calcium carbonate. It reacts with acid and dissolves in it. The left over egg seems to be rubbery.
If it bounces then you probably overcooked it they are rubbery though^yes...but If you soak the egg in white vinegar for 48-72 hours, the shell will disolve the leave the membranes intact. The membranes make the egg rubbery and will in turn bounce(it'll feel like a bouncy ball)
It does not necessarily turn it into rubber, but vinegar does dissolve the shell of the egg leaving the membranes intact, which may seem rubbery but it is simply an egg without a shell.
White vinegar is the best liquid for making an egg shell rubbery. The vinegar must be changed daily to prevent mold from growing on the egg shell.
to turn it into a rubbery substance and to preserve it
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.
If you put a raw egg in vinegar the egg shell will disolve and will leave the whole inside rubbery. This happens from acetic acid. Acitic acid is used as a solven in rubber, plastic, is chief acid of vinegar. (you could hear more about acetic acid if you ask a Qustion about it.)
water
Yes. Yes an egg will bounce if put in vinegar
The shell of the quail egg will come off
Never heard that I always thought vinegar made it rubbery
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.
yes if you keep it in vinegar for 7-8 days. the acids in vinegar break down the calcium carbonate in egg making the egg soft and rubbery. it can bounce then
