Science Fair Projects – Egg in a Bottle
The University of Illinois provides visitors to its website with various science fair projects, including the perennial favourite – “Can air pressure alone cause an egg to be pushed into a bottle?”. Of course, it can. To make it work you’ll need an egg, a bottle, and a couple of matches. It’s all to do with air pressure differences.
But, the procedure Illinois suggests students to follow begins with “Step 1 – Peel the shells off the eggs”.
Not until further down the page (below the fold in fact) does it mention a crucial preparatory step. Can you guess what it is? Or, would you end up with egg on your face, and all over your hands?
You can watch a video of this kind of egg in a bottle experiment here.

my project is doue 2morrow and im doing it now
i think EGG IN A BOTTLE is a very nice and good project to do. im in the 4th grade and im sure im going to get a good grade.its due firday and i havent started YET.
cool science project i am going to use this expieriment
this website is soooooooooooooooooooooo cool it helps people learn
well, maybe it isnt the best thing to do. I did it in the 7nth grade and i won 1st place. Im doing it again in the 9th, and im sure im not going to get the greatest grade on it because its due 2moro and im doing it now….but hey.
