There's a couple of important phenomena you guys left out of the last 2 graphics. 1. During the corn syrup stage: Once the water exited the egg the surrounding corn syrup became less dense, and rose towards the top of the glass. This means the water concentration outside the egg stayed [reasonably] constant (the graphic depicts a saturation outside of the egg). 2. Dye stage: There aren't any pigment/dye molecules depicted entering the egg (or even staining the membrane which I suspect attributes to most of the tinting. Also, this is mostly just a nitpick, but even before an equilibrium has been reached there's still a cross exchange. In other words, some water would be exiting the membrane while a larger portion was entering. Your graphic omitted this, which is actually good for keeping things relatively simple and easy to learn. That's the way professional graphics depict almost any molecular phenomena. It always gets to me when I see that though. In my opinion, the more realistic the dynamics are the better the educational value. You can still make things clear/simple by hilighting, or isolating, a demonstration area (center of the screen) while having a more realistic fluid dynamic in the background/edge of the screen. Possibly even in the actual background, if you want to include distance and a 3-dimensional view to the cross section display (like looking into a microscope, you tend to have space for a few layers of cells). Lastly if you didn't die from my wall of text... What do you guys think about replacing the corn syrup with oobleck? Would it work? I think it would, but the corn starch might settle/separate and harden. Maybe adding a surfactant like soap would prevent that, but if that's necessary how would it affect the egg?
hi school friends! now i dont know what your sheet looks like but heres some of it i hope (: Osmosis : osmosis is the tendency of water to move across a membrane from a dilute solution into a concentrated solution Time stamps : credit to milo Normal egg : 0:58 Vinegar: 1:12 Corn syrup: 2:05 food coloring 2:49
I am doing this experiment in school and I plan do to it at home. Earler my teacher showed us this exacted same video and I just now showed it my mother and sister. I really liked this video and I am inspired!!😊
Bubblecubes Here is my prediction. If you take your naked egg directly from the vinegar stage and place it in water with food colouring, the egg may grow slightly bigger and will also probably absorb some of the food colouring. If you then place it in the corn syrup, it will shrink all the way down like it did in our video. You should try this at home and let me know if my prediction is correct.
It's the classic reply after way too long, but I'm assuming any kind of thick syrup with lots of sugat would work, based off of the video. Maple or golden syrup maybe?
@@ryangallagher9723 Halfpast3am is correct. Sugar drinks are know to dehydrate the body. Which is why you need to stay away from them when you need to hydrate.
This is a beautiful and entertaining video. Thank you. The purpose of the blue dye isn't apparent, apart from making the egg quite pretty, since the dye molecules are too big to enter the egg and must simply be binding to the egg membrane.
How long do these last? Do you have to refrigerate afterwards or can they stay out in room temp? Do they go bad after a while? Thank you for explaining the whole reason behind this!!
Angela Ponder Not sure how long they last. Probably around the same time as a normal egg would last. Yes they would eventually go bad and you should store them in the fridge.
Great experiment. You should probably clarify that the blue-coloured molecules in the food colouring can move through the semi-permeable membrane into the egg, causing the egg to take on the blue colour. It's not just water that can move. :)
thank you! I am home sick and was given this video as part of a lab I was unable to attend. one of the questions was "Does blue dye move into or out of the egg?" I HAVE NO IDEA! Thanks for the clarification.
@@Tanneremerson You're welcome. It is quite simplified, but not only water can move through a semi-permeable membrane, but also other small molecules like the dye molecules which give the dye its colour..
Hello! In school we did an experiment similar to yours. We put or egg in Vinegar, Corn Syrup, and then Water but then we put it back into Vinegar or some other classrooms put there egg in Coca Cola.
The Sci Guys Well when we but it in the vinegar again we kept it in the vinegar for about 2 days and you could see the membrane (before we couldn't see it) and when we started to move the egg around. You could see the yolk inside it. All our egg mass for the second time of putting it in the vinegar was 2 times bigger than a raw egg. You guys should really try doing that... :)
The Sci Guys I did this for my stem fair project and all it did was turn the egg brown I thought that with so much sugar and acid it would do more than the vinegar.
(I'm like 9 years too late lmao) I mean you could try to cook it somehow, but it might not be good anymore unless you kept the experiment soaking while in a fridge (but i'm not sure if that will affect the results). I don't think it would taste good because of how much vinegar that was put in it at the beginning, but if you want to try you could.
isotonic = stay the same because the solutes are equal on both sides hypotonic = grow because the solution the egg is put in has more water than solute so water rushes into the egg hypertonic = shrink because the solution the egg is put into has less water than solute so the water rushes out
here are the questions my teacher assigned me and their answers incase anyone else got them. What happens to the egg once the shell is removed? Why? It grows because water has flown from the vinegar into the egg through osmosis. What happens to the egg after it is placed in corn syrup? Why? It became shriveled and small because it didn’t absorb any water like it did from the vinegar. *thats what i got so dont judge me if its wrong LMAO*
Hey guys! I have a question... I want to make this with my kids (I'm a teacher) and I was wondering if I can use maple syrup instead of corn syrup? It's just because it's easier to get 'cos almost all the corn syrups here are transparent and I think the color it's a special feature... Thanks! Amazing job.
I'm going to try but i looked it up and if you don't have corn syrup you could technically use honey it has between 15.5% and 18.6% water while corn syrup has 24% water. i will be coming back and telling everyone if it worked.
I have one question that-- is it important that we keep the egg in vinegar only can't we keep the egg in water as only water molecules are travelling in wards egg shell???
The closed captioning on this isn't very good, just as a heads up. For instance, instead of "and an old spoon or gravy ladle" the closed captioning has "and all spoon or reveal". Similarly "the first step in our experiment is take your day gently placing a bomb in class" instead of "the first step in our experiment is to take your egg and gently place it in the bottom of your glass". Could be very problematic for someone who is hard of hearing to try and follow along!
WalterAndElizabeth Currently the closed captioning on our videos is generated automatically by TH-cam and at it can struggle to accurately generate the closed captioning. I can look into ways that we can generate our own close captioning but I cannot promise when that can be updated as it could be very time consuming.
@@plaqqxtikkimightquit5710 you can show it for a science project as long as you make multiple eggs showing the different stages with a science explanation most likely using the words hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic; Or you could just be mean and chuck it at that one annoying neighbors house.
Ather Aziz Soy sauce may shrink the egg a little bit, depending on the ratio of salt to water. If it does shrink it probably won't be as dramatic as using a syrup. The soy sauce will also probably colour your egg a dark colour. You should try it out and let us know what happens!!
Hey thanks for the video guys. What I don't understand is why the egg became bigger (absorbed water) when it was placed in vinegar, the acetic acid. Is this because the concentration of the egg was higher than that of the vinegar, and so the water traveled into the egg because it was placed in a hypotonic solution? Thanks and please reply!
This explains it sooooo much better than my biology book like I couldn’t understand the book and after watching the video it turned out to be this easy
Hi, Thank you for the great science experiments, I use them with my grade 5 students. I would like to do the naked egg and osmosis experiment but corn syrup is very hard to get in Australia, particularly where we are. We're in rural Tasmania. Can I substitute with granulated sugar and warm water?
I am curious to know what happens if you break the blue egg as it is clear the colorant is on its surface. Listening your explanation it is clear to me that the colorant should remain on the surface of the egg, however it should not going inside. If you break the blue egg, do you find the colorant inside or not?
If you don't have corn syrup, honey will work because it has a 2% water percentage difference. Marijan might work but the results will be different since it's water percentage is somewhere around 30-40% where as in corn syrup it is 24%
Ok so I have an assignment due for college and I am doing animal biology and my lecturer have the whole class thos video to watch I have watched this video like 5 times and I still dont know how to answer the question I have been asked to write about This is the question what is the importance of osmosis to living organisms I am so confused 👌🏻
Does it make any difference if the corn syrup is dark or light? Does it just affect the tint of the egg or i the dark corn syrup necessary for the reaction?
Lizzi Rockwell It shouldn't matter which you use and yes it should only change the tint of the egg. Just make sure you are using a corn syrup that has a really high sugar content.
Hi I would like to ask you 2 questions 1) if I leave the egg in vinegar for a long time will it grown larger? (1 week in vinegar) 2) if I leave the egg out of the vinegar will it rot? (1 week out of the vinegar)
Shahd Eweis 1) It won't grow any larger than the equilibrium of the liquids and the size of the membrane will allow. So a longer time in the vinegar won't change much. 2) It will probably eventually start to mold or go bad. If you leave the egg on a plate it should start to 'sweat' out the liquid inside it and should shrink slowly. Not sure how small but maybe we will do a quick video to see what happens.
I wonder if a test like this with an egg in a solution can be used to show whether or not certain chemicals can pass through our skin such as in cologne/perfume, lotions etc.
+AmiyaRoseWickWasHere Dark Corn syrup should work find as long as it has around the same level of sugar. It just might look a little darker in colour. Apply cider vinegar will work as long as the concentration of acid is the same as normal vinegar and that often depends on the brand.
Nightbird I am not 100% sure but I would think that it will release some water but the membrane will probably become hard before all the liquid is released. It would be something fun to test. We may do a quick video at some point to test this out.
The Sci Guys Thanks for letting me know. I will just keep the two I made in a dish in case they decide to pop, crack or worse with time..but it will be interesting to see what happens. I'll give you an update in a few weeks/months if you'd like. Thanks again! =)

2) It will probably eventually start to mold or go bad. If you leave the egg on a plate it should start to 'sweat' out the liquid inside it and should shrink slowly. Not sure how small but maybe we will do a quick video to see what happens.
Thank you again :)
It would also have the same effect if we replaced the corn syrup with extremely salty water, right?
This video was really helpful for a school prac... thanks!
I wonder if a test like this with an egg in a solution can be used to show whether or not certain chemicals can pass through our skin such as in cologne/perfume, lotions etc.
what law/principle of chemistry is applied here? i need for my project thank you!
Could i use dark corn syrup and get the same results? Also would Apple Cider Vinegar work, or do i need to use just vinegar?
+AmiyaRoseWickWasHere Dark Corn syrup should work find as long as it has around the same level of sugar. It just might look a little darker in colour. Apply cider vinegar will work as long as the concentration of acid is the same as normal vinegar and that often depends on the brand.
Once you have the egg without the shell..how long will it stay rubbery? Will it eventually dehydrate in a flat egg? Thanks!
Nightbird I am not 100% sure but I would think that it will release some water but the membrane will probably become hard before all the liquid is released. It would be something fun to test. We may do a quick video at some point to test this out.
The Sci Guys Thanks for letting me know. I will just keep the two I made in a dish in case they decide to pop, crack or worse with time..but it will be interesting to see what happens. I'll give you an update in a few weeks/months if you'd like. Thanks again! =)
Nightbird We would love to hear what happens!!
The Sci Guys Will do and thanks guys! =)
So this is a dumb question I guess, but then what do you do with the blue egg? Can you eat it, or is is spoiled?
