Question

If you were to continue this experiment by removing the egg from the water and covering it in syrup, what do you think would happen. Explain your prediction. (If you choose to test your prediction, be sure to allow at least 24 hours before making your observations. And, of course, handle the egg very carefully!)

Answer 1

I did this before, the egg would expand a little

Answer 2

The egg will begin to expand over the time that you put it in the syrup.
