What does Coca-Cola do to a egg?

Coca-Cola, like most carbonated drinks, will dissolve the shell of an egg. This is due to the acidic nature of the drink.

Here's what happens:

* Acidic Reaction: Coca-Cola contains phosphoric acid, which reacts with the calcium carbonate in the eggshell. This reaction releases carbon dioxide gas, which you see as bubbles forming.

* Shell Dissolution: The acid gradually dissolves the shell, leaving the egg membrane exposed.

* Egg Membrane Strength: The egg membrane is surprisingly strong and can hold the egg together for a while.

Important Note: While this experiment is a popular demonstration, it's not a good idea to drink Coca-Cola regularly. The high acidity can erode tooth enamel and lead to other health problems.
