An ordinary chicken egg can glow, jump, and shed its shell! If you have any doubts about this, I hasten to dispel them...
What you will see now is a great idea for spending exciting leisure time with children and never-growing older people. Absolutely everyone will love this egg trick!
If you place a chicken egg in vinegar, an amazing chemical reaction will occur. The acids contained in vinegar and the calcium that is so abundant in eggshells are a magical mixture! Watch the video and see for yourself. I was amazed, especially in the last minute of watching...
I really liked it when the shell started to bubble - the vinegar did its job! This happens 5-6 hours after you place the egg in a glass of vinegar, keep this information in mind when you are about to conduct a fascinating experiment.
How extraordinary does such an elastic rubber egg look if you shine it with a flashlight... Definitely! If you are inspired by this idea and also decide to entertain someone like this, I will be very grateful to you!
Did you know that if you place an egg in vinegar for two days, the shell will dissolve and the egg will become elastic. Under the influence of vinegar, the calcium that makes up the shell dissolves and disappears in the form of gas bubbles.
The result is a funny egg that looks like jelly. If you experiment with a boiled egg, it will become elastic, like a rubber ball.
Pour table vinegar (9%) into a transparent glass and lower a chicken egg into it. Carbon dioxide immediately begins to be released from the surface of the egg.
Bird eggshells are made up of 90 percent calcium carbonate. Therefore, when interacting with acid, it begins to disintegrate, releasing CO2.
After 12-15 hours we see what happened. Calcium from the surface of the egg has dissolved. Only the film between the shell and the egg remained intact.
Remove the egg from the vinegar and rinse under running water.
The egg increased slightly in size as it was saturated with vinegar.
There is no shell and you can play with the egg like a ball. The film is very thin, and therefore can tear if handled carelessly.
Now this rubber egg can be illuminated through.
Attention: eating this egg is prohibited!

VIDEO DESCRIPTION
The shell of an egg is made of a substance called calcium carbonate. Vinegar is an acid that can completely dissolve it.
The process that occurs when vinegar comes into contact with eggshells is called decalcification.
It takes at least 24 hours for the shells to dissolve.
They are saturated with paint, which gradually penetrates them as the shell dissolves. The paint of the markers is very saturated, which is why it appears under the glow of an ultraviolet lamp.

Under the influence of vinegar, the calcium that makes up the shell dissolves and disappears in the form of gas bubbles. The result is a funny egg that looks like jelly.

1. Pour table vinegar (9%) into a transparent glass and lower a chicken egg into it. Carbon dioxide immediately begins to be released from the surface of the egg.
2. The shell of bird eggs consists of 90 percent calcium carbonate. Therefore, when interacting with acid, it begins to disintegrate, releasing CO2.
3. After 12 - 15 hours, let’s see what happened. Calcium from the surface of the egg has dissolved. Only the film between the shell and the egg remained intact.
4. Remove the egg from the vinegar and rinse with running water.
5. The egg has increased slightly in size as it has been saturated with vinegar.
6. There is no shell and you can play with the egg like a ball. The film is very thin, and therefore can tear if handled carelessly.
7. Now this rubber egg can be illuminated through.
