When an egg is soaked in vinegar, the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the calcium carbonate of the eggshell, dissolving it and leaving behind the egg's membrane. This process creates a "naked" egg that can be slightly heavier due to the absorption of some vinegar through the semi-permeable membrane. However, the weight change is typically minimal and varies depending on the soak duration. Overall, the egg will retain most of its original weight, with only a slight increase.

What happens when you soak an egg in vinagar?

Vinegar in fact contains acetic acid and this reacts with the calcium carbonate making up the shell of the egg. This reaction gives off carbon dioxide so if you were paying attention you will have seen bubbles coming off the egg as soon as it was added to the vinegar. The membrane around the egg also becomes very rubbery during this soaking in vinegar. This occurs because the acid denatures the protein making up the egg white (albumin). Denaturation of proteins can occur through exposure to acids, bases or high temperature. This is what happens when you cook an egg- the clear egg white turns opaque and white as the protein chains become tangled due to the heat.
