This egg in a bottle science experiment is a fun and educational way to teach kids about the power of air pressure.

Just remember that adult supervision is required since fire is involved to make the magic happen!

The science behind how to get an egg in a bottle:

This egg in a bottle experiment works thanks to the fact that hot air expands and cold air contracts.

As the flame burns inside the bottle and rapidly heats up the air, the air molecules bounce around quickly and the air pressure inside the bottle because greater than the air pressure outside of the bottle.

When the egg is placed on top of the bottle, it cuts off the oxygen supply to the flame. Fire needs oxygen to burn, so the fire quickly burns out.

As the fire goes out the air cools and contracts as the air molecules slow down. This cooling effect decreases the air pressure inside the bottle to a point that the outside air pressure is now greater.

The higher pressure outside the bottle wants to get inside the lower pressure inside the bottle and actually pushes the egg into the bottle as the air makes its way inside!
