The video tutorial demonstrates a science experiment involving an egg, vinegar, and corn syrup. Initially, the egg is placed in vinegar, which dissolves the shell due to the acidic nature of vinegar, leaving a membrane that makes the egg appear larger. This is due to osmosis, where water moves into the egg. The egg is then placed in corn syrup, causing it to shrink as water moves out of the egg into the syrup. The experiment illustrates the concepts of acid reactions and osmosis, resulting in an 'alien egg' appearance.
