This fascinating chemical reaction demonstrates acid-base interactions and shows how membranes can be semi-permeable, allowing water to pass through and causing the egg to change size. See this ...

Take a spoon and very gently lift the egg out of the syrup and place it into the bowl of water/dye. There's no reason for this experiment not to work other than your egg hasn't been left in ...

Watch this fascinating demonstration of air pressure at work. Notice how the egg vibrates as the heated air escapes around it, and how it gets smoothly pushed into the bottle by atmospheric pressure.

Step 9: Finally, compare the egg in water. The surface of the shell should be drastically different to the other eggs in the experiment.
