Boiling an egg for 2 hours will result in an overcooked and extremely hard-boiled egg. The yolk will likely be dry, crumbly, and discolored. It's recommended to boil an egg for around 10-12 minutes for a soft-boiled egg and around 12-14 minutes for a hard-boiled egg for best results.

What happens if you boil an egg for 4 minutes at a 6500 ft altitude?

Interesting question. Here is my best guess: An altitude of 6500 feet is around 2 kilometers high. The atmospheric pressure at that altitude is around 800 millibar. According to the '91 CRC Handbook, the boiling point of water at an external pressure of 800 millibar is 93oC. After surfing some cooking sites for a few minutes I learned a couple things: 1. Hard boil an egg it is best not to boil it... you place them in boiling water but immediately kill the heat. 2. Those that did talk about boiliing the egg in water gave a time of around 3 minutes for soft boiling and 8 minutes for hard boiling. So if you were to boil the egg for 4 minutes at a temperature 7 degrees less than the normal boiling point of water, I would guess you would end up with a soft-boiled egg.


Can boy sperm enter the egg in 2 seconds?

Sperm typically takes several hours to travel and meet the egg in the fallopian tube after ejaculation, so it is unlikely that a sperm can reach and fertilize an egg in just 2 seconds. The journey of the sperm to the egg is a complex process that requires time.

Bowl an egg?

Do you mean "Boil" an egg? I've found the best way to boil an egg is the following: 1. Place the egg in a small pot or sauce pan. 2. Pour water - just enough to cover the egg completely (more will just take longer to heat). 3. Place the pan on the stove and turn the heat to medium high. 4. When the water begins to boil fully, remove the pan from the stove and let the egg sit in the hot water for three minutes. 5. Run cold water over the eggs until cool to the touch and remove the shell.
