Bouncy Egg 3

Today we came back to our eggs from yesterday. We put them in vinegar and coke to see what happened in 24 hours. The acid in the vinegar and coke should have dissolved the egg shell and it should bounce if you drop it. If you want to get more information click here  1 & 2.

The one in vinegar sort of worked. It had dissolved the shell and it was kind of squishy but when we dropped it, it smashed like a normal egg would.

The one in coke didn't work as well but I did notice some changes to the egg. The shell was a bit softened and it was starting to dissolve.

Next time I would leave these for longer. Three days might see better results! 

I really enjoyed this task even though it didn't work that well for us

  1. Dia dhuit Kylah,
    It's disappointing when science experiments don't work especially ones we have had to leave and wait for the reaction to happen. I can see from your video that the vinegar hadn't had time to change the properties of the egg. Maybe next time you could leave it for 48 hours and drop it instead of throwing it.
    Keep up the fantastic blogging.
    Mā te wā,
    Mrs Naden
