until you mix it
it absorbs a majority of the corn syrup and sores it in it's membrane
It depends on the freshness of an egg.
Corn syrup
Bad eggs don't sink they float.
its hypertonic. if it were in water, it would be hypotonic.
float....when you boil an egg it starts out at the bottom and as the insides harden, making it ready for consumption, it will float.
The corn syrup did not enter the shell-less egg due to osmosis, which is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane. The concentrated corn syrup has a lower water concentration compared to the egg's interior, causing water to move out of the egg to balance the concentration gradient. This results in the egg shrinking rather than the syrup entering. The egg's membrane allows water to pass through but is less permeable to larger solute particles like those in corn syrup.
The older an egg is the more likely it is to float. If it actually sits on the surface it may actually have gone bad.
the egg becomes smaller
An egg will float in water if it is old, as air enters the shell over time, increasing buoyancy. A fresh egg will sink in water due to its higher density. If the egg stands on one end at the bottom of the water glass, it is still safe to eat.
An egg will not float in pop (soda) because the egg is denser than the liquid, causing it to sink. In order for an egg to float in pop, the liquid would need to have a higher density than the egg.
Becuase eggshell is a impermabale membrane.
