To bring an egg to room temperature effectively, simply place it in a bowl of warm water for about 10-15 minutes. This will help the egg warm up evenly and quickly without cooking it.
You cannot cook an egg at room temperature.
Egg Whites should be at room temperature before whipping
A Grobag Egg thermometer is a thermometer shaped like an egg that is placed in a nursery or baby's room. It shows the temperature of the room and acts as a night light.
To whip egg whites by hand effectively, start with room temperature eggs and a clean, dry bowl. Use a whisk or electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Be patient and consistent in your whisking motion to incorporate air and create a stable foam. Avoid over-whipping, as this can cause the egg whites to become dry and lose their volume.

Egg whites are better at room temperature when used for a chiffon cake.
Vinegar is a weak acid. It will dissolve the shell of an egg. There will still be a membrane around the egg which will keep the egg from running all over the place. Vegetable oil will not do anything at room temperature. At a higher temperature, it will cook the egg.
There's no reason why not. Just make sure everything--bowl, beaters, and egg whites--are at room temperature. Some cooks place the bowl of egg whites over the pilot light of a gas stove briefly (a few minutes) to take off the chill from the refrigerator. Be careful when using this method. You don't want to cook the eggs, just bring them to room temperature before beating.
Warm the egg whites to room temperature before whipping; this helps a better foam to form.
yes because it is still an egg, just with a different outer layer
Yes - room temperature eggs create better volume when whisked than cold eggs. Cakes and meringues rise much better when when eggs are room temperature.
Cooking an egg is a chemical change because the proteins in the egg become denatured through exposure to heat. There is also a physical change because the denaturing of the proteins causes them to become solid at room temperature.
