Answer:
there would be no difference in the egg as if it is a shelled raw egg then water neither can enter nor leave the egg due presence of the non-permeable hard shell . if the egg is boiled and deshelled still it won't make difference because the egg is cooked and then it's content have turn to solid

The shell of an egg is mainly made up of calcium bicarbonate. It is impermeable to water. So, when the shelled egg is placed in water, the water can neither enter nor leave the egg. Hence, there will not be any change in the size of the egg.
