What else can I help you with?
What chemical reaction would occur if you mixed vinegar and an egg shell?
wow. the last answer was totally wrong. this answer is right though because i am learning about this right now :) okay well first off, the egg shell would disinagrate which is that white foamy stuff at the top. but it takes about one day to get that way. and then there will be a thin coating over the shell. i don't know the chemical equation but i do know that this is what happens. you can acually see the yolk in the egg move around. its pretty tight :) let me suggest though that you DON'T eat it. because you will or can get salamenela disease and the egg wouldn't taste that good anyways. i sure hope this helped.
What happens to an egg when placed in salt water?
The egg will decrease in size (water will exit) if the shell is removed by some means before the egg is placed in the solution. If the shell has not been removed, however, not much will happen as the shell is basically impermeable.
How does the acid in vinegar desolve the egg shell and the acid in coke does not?
Vinegar contains acetic acid, which reacts with the calcium carbonate in the eggshell to form water-soluble calcium acetate and carbon dioxide, dissolving the eggshell. Coke contains phosphoric acid, which is not as effective at dissolving calcium carbonate, so it does not have the same reaction with the eggshell.
What happens to an egg in citric acid?
When an egg is placed in citric acid, the acid breaks down the calcium carbonate in the eggshell, resulting in the eggshell dissolving. This process exposes the egg's membrane, allowing the citric acid to penetrate the egg and denature its proteins. Ultimately, the egg becomes rubbery and opaque due to the changes in its protein structure.
Does vinegar leave a residue when used for cleaning?
Yes, vinegar can leave a residue when used for cleaning if not properly diluted or rinsed off.
What happends to a egg when it is in water or vinegar?
Vinegar makes the egg wrinkly/takes off the shell and water makes and egg stronger
What will happen to a quail egg if its soaked in vinegar?
The shell of the quail egg will come off
Why does a egg go bouncy when 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.
Why does vinegar make eggs soft?
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.
How to take the shell off an egg?
vinegar, letting it sit for 2-3 days
Can the shell of an egg be taken off without boiling it?
You can dissolve the calcium shell in vinegar (it takes a few days but is quite simple).
Why would you remove the egg shell first if it were to be placed in vinegar?
Egg shells is made up of calcium carbonate. Vinegar aka ethanoic acid is a type of acid. When vinegar come upon contact with the egg shell, the egg shell will corrode making it weak and fragile. In terms of science, this is what happens: Calcium carbonate + acid will produce calcium salt + water + carbon dioxide CaCO3 + CH3COOH -> CH3COOCa + H2O + CO2 .
How do you get an egg out of its shell?
items: you will need... a jar with a lid, egg,and vinegar direction's: you put the egg in the jar and fill the jar with vinegar till the egg is covered. Then wait 3 days till u open you will see chunks of the shell coming off that is OK. Now 3 days have past and you open up the jar and you now have an egg with no shell! Does it feel squishy or slimy? cool right!
What happen to the raw of egg after putting inside the jar with vinegar?
the shell comes off the egg, and you just have the thin layer of yolky like stuff that holds the egg inside
What happens if you put an egg in vinegar?
What happens is the egg will soften and the shell will eventualy dissolve off of the egg and then the egg will get a rubbery feel. Chances are you might be able to bounce if you try. This is not me telling you to bounce it.
Will a eggshell dissolve in vinegar?
Yes. Even dilute acetic acid, vinegar, can dissolve eggshell. Try this experiment: put a raw egg in vinegar for three days. The shell will dissolve but the egg will still be intact in its membrane. You can remove the egg and it will be rubbery. Handle delicately - the membrane is thin and easily torn. You'll also notice that the egg has swollen - the membrane is permeable, and the vinegar will penetrate into the fluid parts of the egg, swelling it.
Why does the vinegar eat the eggshell?
Because the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the solid calcium carbonate crystals that make up the eggshell, separating them into their calcium and carbonate parts, the calcium ions floats free and the carbonate makes the bubbles (carbon dioxide) that you can see on the egg. The protein that binds the calcium and carbonate is the froth that you can see on the top.
