Egg in a Bottle

You know a joke about covalent bonds? Do share! Scholars learn about the similarities and differences in ionic and covalent bonding. They build 3-D models of molecular compounds, applying their knowledge of Lewis dot structures,...

In this scientific investigation worksheet, students observe a demonstration where paper is ignited and placed in a bottle with a hard-boiled egg at the opening. Students predict what will occur, they make observations and they make...

It's easy to get sucked into a situation because of peer pressure. A demonstrative activity uses an egg, a flame, and a bottle to show learners the ways that peer pressure can pull you somewhere you shouldn't be.

Intrigue the class by completing a lesson on meiosis, filled with challenging and insightful activities to spark the interest of every person in the room. Each member of the class learns about genetic disorders due to faulty meiosis, and...

A teenaged Jack Spangler demonstrates how reducing air pressure in a bottle can pull a boiled egg inside. Then dad does a similar demonstration using liquid nitrogen to reduce the air pressure. Even though the result is the same, the...

Can you make a stopped egg spin again without touching it? A Veritasium video attempts to do this using inertia. It discusses the differences between attempts with hard-boiled and raw eggs. It explains the science of inertia and opens up...

Sixth graders identify air pressure and how it affects objects. They experiment with one hard boiled egg in a bottle and the affects of air pressure on the egg.

Have you ever seen an egg squeeze through a milk bottle? Show your class this experiment to illustrate expansion and contraction. Where else do we see these at work?
