Eggs soaked in distilled water will gain mass and appear dramatically swollen. Eggs in dilute salt solutions will gain mass, and even those in very concentrated solutions might gain mass. Eggs buried in salt or other dry media should lose mass.

Why does a vinegar soaked egg lose its shell and grow?

Soaking an egg in vinegar makes the egg either shrink or grow, most likely it will grow. When you put the egg into the vinegar, it has a chemical reaction, which makes it either shrink or grow bigger. Most of the time it will grow bigger, depending on what type of egg you have. It only takes 24 hrs to make the egg grow bigger or shrink, have fun!

What material moved through the egg membrane after soaked in syrup?

Water moved out of the egg when soaked in syrup because of osmosis. This is because the concentration of water is lower outside the egg than inside, causing water to move from an area of higher concentration (inside the egg) to an area of lower concentration (outside the egg).

What happens to egg when soaked in water?

When an egg is soaked in water, it doesn't absorb any water because the shell is semi-permeable. However, over time, water can evaporate through the shell, causing the egg to lose weight and dehydrate. If the egg is left in water for a very long time, it may eventually start to decompose.

Why does an egg grow bigger in tap water?

I believe it is referred to "dino egg" or "magic egg", expandable water toys. These toys are made from water absorbent polymer which can absorb water and swell to a lot larger size. So absorbing water cause them to grow bigger. For common egg, chicken egg had shell and won't expand, ikura (salmon egg in soy sauce) had no external shell and would expand due to absorption of water.
