What causes water molecules to move when an egg is placed vinegar?

egg has more water molecules than vinegar so when egg is placed in vinegar water molecules move from the egg to the vinegar due to osmosis,which is defined as "the movement of water molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration thru a partially permeable membrane"
there fore the water molecules move inward. The proof is that the egg got larger and this was because water moved into the egg after the shell disintegrated from the 5% of acid in the vinegar. (the other 95% is water)

What happen when vinegar and water mix?
You get diluted vinegar. Most vinegar sold today is already diluted with water, so any dissociation of the acetic acid molecules has already occurred before you get it.
What causes water particles to split into hydrogen and oxygen?
molecules
How much water is in vinegar?
Vinegar is made of acetic acid that is placed in water. The acetic acid is only about five percent of the entire liquid, so it is safe to believe that vinegar is ninety-five percent water.
What provides the energy causes water to evaporate?
This is the continuous Brownian movement of water molecules.
When CuSo4 solution is placed in a beaker containing water it turns blue?
The molecules of copper sulphate solution mixes with the water molecules due to diffusion thereby making the water blue.
When an egg is placed in vinegar which way do th water molecules move?
Hi!! I am pretty sure the water molecules move outwards from the egg. This is called osmosis.
Why does water evaporate faster than vinegar?
Vinegar evaporates quicker then water because the acid inside of vinegar causes the sun to make the molecules inside the vinegar to boil faster then the water so then the molecules inside the vinegar will break apart faster until the vinegar is completely gone Acetic acid enthalpy of vaporization is lower compared to the same property of water.
When an egg is placed in water in which direction did the water molecules move?
the egg will sink and the water will ''float''
Why oil molecules are not attracted to water molecules in vinegar?
because the vinegar particles are not attracted to the particles of oil.
Does vinegar have the same water concentration as an egg?
No, vinegar has a higher concentration of water than an egg. Therefore, if an egg is placed in vinegar, then it will gain mass because vinegar is hypotonic to the egg.
What happen when vinegar and water mix?
You get diluted vinegar. Most vinegar sold today is already diluted with water, so any dissociation of the acetic acid molecules has already occurred before you get it.
What causes the attraction between water molecules causes?
cohesion is the answer
How does cooking happen in a microwave?
When food is placed inside the microwave oven, the microwave released will 'agitate' the water molecules in the food, which causes heat to be produced, which then cooks the food.
Why can a carefully placed needle float on water even though it is more dense then the water?
Because of the surface tension: the attracting force between the water molecules, which effectively causes a "skin" on the top of the water. Drop a few drops of soap in the water and the needle will sink, because the soap weakens the bond between the water's molecules.
What causes water molecule to be attracted to one on another?
what causes water molecules to be attracteed to one another
What happen when a collection of phospholipid molecules are placed in water?
they form a bilayor
What causes water particles to split into hydrogen and oxygen?
molecules
