Heya,

Egg shell is mage up of a compound called  Calcium Carbonate.

When it reacts with nitric acid,it forms Calcium nitrate ,carbin dioxide and water.

CaCO3 + 2HNO3 ⇨ Ca(NO3 )2 + CO2 + H2O

Hope i'm right......

Egg shells are made of calcium carbonate. When nitric acid is added, calcium carbonate reacts with nitric acid to form calcium nitrate, carbondioxide and water.
