Observation: A brisk effervescence is seen and a gas which turns lime water milky and extinguishes a glowing splinter is evolved.
Nitric Acid reacts with egg shell to form calcium nitrate, carbon dioxide and water.
Equ:
CaCO3 [s] + 2HNO3 [aqu] --------> Ca(NO3)2 [aqu] +CO2 [g] + H2O [l]
Egg shell + Nitric Acid --------> Calcium Nitrate + Carbon dioxide + Water.

The eggshell includes calcium carbonate and When the nitric acid is delivered to eggshells it influences withinside the formation of calcium nitrate and carbon-di-oxide gas.
Explanation:
- When nitric acid is delivered to an eggshell, it dissolves the eggshell. Eggshell includes calcium carbonate which dissolves in nitric acid. The reaction between nitric acid and calcium carbonate yield calcium nitrate and carbon dioxide gas.
- Eggshell + Nitric Acid gives Calcium Nitrate + Carbon dioxide + Water.
Observation :
- A brisk effervescence is seen and gas (Carbon dioxide gas) is formed that turns into milky lime water and evolves to extinguish a glowing splinter.
