of that weight like the first one was 1.15g but ended up with .78g the 2nd 1.42g and the third .45 the lightest of our shells. Now it turns out that the reason why shells dissolved from the vinegar is that vinegar has 4% acetic acid. If you soak an egg shell in vinegar you start a chemical reaction that dissolves the calcium carbonate shell. The acetic acid reacts with the calcium carbonate in the eggshell and releases carbon dioxide gas that you see as bubbles on the shell.
