Vinegar is acidic. An acid will dissolve (partially at least) the calcium of the shell.
The vinegar isn't absorbed by the egg.
When you put a raw egg in vinegar, the acid in the vinegar dissolves the eggshell. This leaves you with just the egg membrane. When you then place the egg in saltwater, osmosis occurs where water moves from the egg to the saltwater or vice versa depending on the concentration gradient, causing the egg to shrink or swell.
Red food colouring, Vinegar, and Baking Soda.
Liquids such as cola and orange juice affect egg shells by weakening the shell. The acids found in cola and orange juice when combined with the calcium carbonate found in the egg shells result in the egg shells becoming softer.
Yes, when you place an egg in vinegar, a chemical reaction occurs that dissolves the eggshell, leaving behind the egg membrane. Over time, the egg may break down and turn mushy as the vinegar breaks down the proteins in the egg.

When an egg is placed in vinegar, the shell dissolves due to the vinegar's acidity. This causes the egg to increase in size as the vinegar penetrates the egg's membrane, causing it to swell.
Why does an egg fold if you put it in vinegar?
The vinegar makes the egg soft because, the vinegar has a chemical reaction due to the Carbon Dioxide in the vinegar which has an effect on the egg. That's why the egg's shell dissolves off, and the egg gets soft.Correction:A raw egg will NOT bounce when dropped into vinegar. The egg must sit in vinegar for about 24 hours, so that the vinegar will react with the carbon dioxide in the egg shell, before the egg will become soft and rubbery. See link below.
The egg will break in vinegar.
The vinegar isn't absorbed by the egg.
yes. To color eggs, it's the acid of vinegar that determines how well the dye takes. So rice vinegar can be used just as well as any other vinegar.
No, vinegar has a higher water concentration compared to an egg. Vinegar is primarily composed of water, whereas an egg has water, protein, and fats in addition to other components like vitamins and minerals.
The vinegar makes the egg soft because, the vinegar has a chemical reaction due to the Carbon Dioxide in the vinegar which has an effect on the egg. That's why the egg's shell dissolves off, and the egg gets soft.
The circumference of an egg in vinegar varies for each egg.
