Answer to Question 1

the expected result would be liquid pooling at the bottom of the bowl. The protein films surrounding the air cells rupture, creating bubbles that are too large and unstable.

Answer to Question 2

The addition of egg yolk inhibited foam formation due to the fat content of the yolk.
