Sam's science experiment

Hi everyone, my science experiment was with an egg and vinegar. I put an egg in vinegar for 4 days, the egg was suppose to become bouncy because the vinegar sucks out the calcium out of the shell. We tested the egg by dropping it from about 3cm from the concrete. At this height it bounced really well. The next height we tried was 5cm, this also bounced really well. Unfortunately, at about 10cm the egg broke. This was a cool experiment. By Sam.

    Great experiment, Sam. I wonder if you had soaked it longer, whether it would have bounced from higher. I love reading about your learning.

    I tried it at home but for longer. It made a big difference in the results from when I did it for four days.

    What a great experiment! If you leave it for about a week, the egg wouldn't crack as much. But it was a great experiment.
