So we took our eggs out of the syrup! And it was really cool. Jack's and Mina's egg seamed inflated, but Anna's didn't appear to change from the last time. We pressed on the eggs and noticed that the membrane squished in. It seamed like it was more empty on the inside.
We cracked open the eggs to see what was going on inside.
We noticed that the yoke was still in the egg, but there didn't seam to be a lot of water in there. What we found out is that the membrane that was left of the egg, after the vinegar removed the shell was thin enough to let the water molecules leave the egg. This is a process called osmosis. We don't know why Anna's egg didn't work. Maybe its because there wasn't enough corn syrup.
Overall this egg-spearment was really cool!
Anna: I want to find out why my egg was different, maybe we should try it again!
Mina: The egg felt really cool when it was just a membrane.
Jack: Vinegar eats the shell, and thats pretty cool.
