The albumen present in the egg is a helix shaped protein.
When the egg is heated , the strands of the protein gets unfolded and long strands are left behind. These strands crosslink with each other due to which albumen becomes solid.
This is a type of DENATURATION OF PROTEIN in which the primary structure of the protein is destroyed and the protein loses its vital values.

Heya. !!!!
here is the answer,
_________________
=>Egg white consists of proteins. The heated proteins unwind and join loosely with others. The egg becomes firm, changing from liquid to semi solid or solid state.
=>The egg is comprised of complex proteins which heating loses hydrogen bond (weak bond) results in cross-linked protein hence the egg gets hardened on boiling,
the schematic representation is given above,
