The egg in HCl reacts violently as the calcium carbonate on the outer surface of egg is dissolved. This is what actually happens :
The egg in the hydrochloric acid is lighter, because the gas bubbles provide a floatation device, than the acid so it stayed at the top. The bubbles occurred because the calcium carbonate on the egg shell reacted with the acid. Carbon dioxide bubbles are produced, causing the egg to rotate and spin. The carbon dioxide bubbles on top of the eggs break. In the meantime more bubbles are attached to the bottom of the egg. These bubbles now cause the egg to spin and repeat the process.
The bubbles attached to the egg also made it less dense.
After this experiment, the egg will not have a shell. It will have dissolved.
then when you place this egg in water, Osmosis takes place. Well, the egg is 90% water. So now when you keep the egg in water it kind of pushes the egg membrane. Basically, water is flowing into the egg and the egg swells as the water enters it.

What happens to HCl when it is put in water?
When hydrogen chloride (HCl) is put in water, it ionizes to form hydronium ions (H3O+) and chloride ions (Cl-). This reaction releases energy in the form of heat and is exothermic. The resulting solution is known as hydrochloric acid.
What happens when you put water with baking soda and a egg?
When you mix water with baking soda, you create a basic solution. Adding an egg to this mixture can cause a chemical reaction due to the alkaline environment created by the baking soda. This may lead to changes in the egg's structure or texture.
What happens when you put a egg in soda?
When you put an egg in soda, the acid in the soda breaks down the calcium carbonate in the eggshell, causing the shell to dissolve. This leaves the egg yolk and white intact but without the protective shell.
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.
What are the materials for floating an egg in salt?
I would think water. What you would do, is take a glass of water, peel the egg, put salt in, then put the egg in, and I think that is it. I haven't tried it out, but I am pretty sure that's all to it.
What happens if you you put an egg in water?
It will get wet.
What happens if you put an egg in sparking water?
It will get wet.
What happens when an egg is put into salt water?
It floats.
What happens to a boiled egg when you put it in water?
I think that the egg shrivels up
What happens if you put an egg in hot water?
the outside of the egg will be hard because the egg will be boiling
What happens when you put a egg in salt water?
The egg should have its water or substance in the egg come out through the cell membrane. :)
What happens to HCl when it is put in water?

What happens to the corn syrup when an egg without shell is put in to it?
the egg decreases in mass because the water moves out of it through the membrane, this happens because water goes from low high to concentration. this is called osmosis.
What happens if you put an egg in salt water for a week?
If you put an egg in salt water for a week, the egg will begin to undergo osmosis. The salt concentration in the water will cause water to move out of the egg, resulting in the egg shrinking and becoming smaller in size. The egg's membrane may also become translucent or appear to be semi-transparent.
What happens if you put an egg in sprite for a week?
nothing happens
What happens when you put a boiled egg in pure water and then in concentrated salt solution?
Greenblucks cousin will beat the sh1t out of you
What happens when you put an egg in tap water?
When you put an egg in tap water, it will sink to the bottom if it is fresh. Fresh eggs have denser contents, causing them to sink. If it floats, it is an indication that the egg is not as fresh and has probably started to spoil.
