Because vinegar will dissolve the calcium shell of an egg, the egg will increase in size by about 30 to 60 millimeters after being in vinegar.
yes
Gravity pulls the egg downward towards the ground, causing it to accelerate as it falls. The height from which the egg is dropped will affect the speed at which it impacts the ground, and therefore the distance the egg splatters. The higher the drop height, the greater the impact force, and the larger the splatter distance.
The egg splattered on the ground.
yes
In order to splatter or crack, an egg must be located at zero height above a solid surface, and must have a substantial downward velocity.
The higher the height the egg is dropped from, the larger the area of egg splatter on impact, due to increased velocity and force. However, there may also be a point at which height no longer significantly affects the distance of egg splatter, as other factors like wind resistance come into play.
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.
When an egg is placed in vinegar, the shell dissolves due to the vinegar's acidity. This causes the egg to increase in size as the vinegar penetrates the egg's membrane, causing it to swell.
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.
Why does an egg fold if you put it in vinegar?
Probably mainly calcium carbonate
