This classic rubber egg science experiment is very cool and easy to set up. We can make rubber egg or naked egg by placing egg in vinegar by release of carbon dioxide. It is an interesting kids science experiment we can do at home

Rubber Egg easy home experiment |
Reagents and equipment
- Chicken eggs
- Glasses
- Table vinegar
Procedure
Dip the eggs in vinegar taken in the glasses leave them the for at least six hours, until the shells dissolve completely. The dissolving time changes with the thickness of the egg shell.
Processes
Egg shell is made up of calcium carbonate, which easily dissolve in vinegar(diluted acetic acid). Here calcium carbonate react with acetic acid to form calcium acetate and CO2 is released.
CaCo3+2CH3COOH → Ca(CH3COO)2+CO2
