Egg-speriment

 Mrs King our princibale set us a challenge we had to try and make an egg bounce with out cooking it!!!  We used two different vinegars. We tried it with two eggs. We put the eggs into glass jars and poured in the vinegar. We used white vinegar and malt vinegar. I found out that eggs shell is made of calicum which is porus, a bit like our teeth. We waited 3 day before bouncing it. The first time Mrs Hicford was bouncing the egg on the table the egg nearly fell off but she caught it, she bounced it again and it fell off and splattered all over  the floor. That was the one in malt vinegar.  We had one egg now. We went outside. We had a meter ruler and a container. First we dropped it from 10cm ,it bounced. Next we dropped it from 20cm and it splatted into the container. Now we have some more eggs doing the same. hopfuly they bounce better than the others. This time we are going to wait longer than 3 days.
