When an egg reacts with acetic acid (vinegar), a chemical reaction occurs that causes the eggshell to dissolve. The acetic acid in the vinegar breaks down the calcium carbonate in the eggshell, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide gas. This reaction leaves behind the egg membrane intact.

What will happen to the substances soaking in acetic acid?
The substances soaking in acetic acid may undergo a chemical reaction depending on their composition. Acetic acid may dissolve or react with certain materials, leading to changes in their properties. However, if the substances are inert to acetic acid, they may remain unaffected.
What will happen when an egg is placed in acetic acid?
When an egg is placed in acetic acid, the acid will start to break down the calcium carbonate in the eggshell. As a result, the eggshell will dissolve, leaving behind the inner membrane of the egg. This process is a demonstration of a chemical reaction between the acid and the calcium carbonate in the eggshell.
What happens when you put eggs in vinegar?
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.)
What happen to the shell of an egg when it soak in acetic acid?
The shell (Calcium carbonate) dissolves in acetic acid and forms water and carbon dioxide. CaCO3 + 2 CH3COOH --> Ca(CH3COO)2 + H2O + CO2
What is needed to turn alcohol into vinegar?
To turn alcohol into vinegar, you will need alcohol (such as wine, beer, or cider), vinegar mother (a culture of acetic acid bacteria), and oxygen. The acetic acid bacteria will convert the alcohol into acetic acid in the presence of oxygen, resulting in vinegar.

What happens to an egg onwhen water and vinegar together?
I am not sure as to what you are asking but I can tell you that acetic acid (vinegar) dissolves the CaCO3 in the egg shell, thus disintegrating the exterior of egg shell. This is irrelevant of the water (aside from how quickly it happens)
What in the vinegar makes the egg shell dissolve?
acetic acid
What is in acetic which makes it dissolve egg shells?
the acid part

What is the data of an bouncy egg?
A bouncy egg is typically made by soaking a raw egg in vinegar, which causes the eggshell to dissolve, leaving a rubbery membrane intact. This membrane allows the egg to bounce somewhat like a bouncy ball. It is not safe to eat the egg after this process.
What chemical dissolves the outside of an egg cell?
Acetic acid, which is found in vinegar, can dissolve the outer membrane of an egg cell. The acetic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in the eggshell, breaking it down and allowing the membrane underneath to be exposed.
What is needed to turn alcohol into vinegar?
To turn alcohol into vinegar, you will need alcohol (such as wine, beer, or cider), vinegar mother (a culture of acetic acid bacteria), and oxygen. The acetic acid bacteria will convert the alcohol into acetic acid in the presence of oxygen, resulting in vinegar.
Why will you need eggs in making an egg bounce with vinegar?
The egg shell is a calcium compound, calcium carbonate. Vinegar contains acetic acid. They react to form calcium acetate and release carbon dioxide, the gas bubbles that you see.
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.
