Water will move into or out the egg due to various reasons. For instance, in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell through osmosis.

When the egg was placed in vinegar the water molecules moved into the egg making the egg larger. The vinegar was simply used to dissolve the shell.

they move into the egg because the molecules in the egg move out :) <3 kari Beth andric

In water waves water particles move in?

Water particles (molecules) move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave. That means that as the wave moves out across the water, which is its direction of propagation, the water molecules move up and down (transversely) to create the crests and troughs of the wave.


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.


Which way would the water molecules move if a potato slice is placed in are water?

The molecules would move down towards the centre of the earth until stopped by something.


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)


Water travels in what kind of wave?

water travels as a transverse wave (meaning that the water molecules move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the path of the wave. the molecules move up and down while the wave moves in horizontal direction).


What motion do molecules move when in cold water?

does molecules move in cold water


What is statements about ice melting?

Water molecules move from their fixed positions


What is the process in which molecules move from an area where there are a lot of them to an area where there are a few of them in plants?

Molecules move from an area of higher concentraion to lower concentration by a process called "diffusion." When the molecules move from more to less concentration, it is called a "concentraiton gradient." When molecules move generally in one direction (towards one area), it is called "net direction."


How do water molecules move in water?

The answer is that water molecules move by a stream of moving cytoplasm, some what like how the currents move to the ocean.


What direction do particles in water wave move?

Water is a very unique object in our galaxy. Water, when frozen actually expands and the molecules rotate in place. Water in the liquid state moves in ripples if disturbed. The force of the pressure from the object on the surface of water is the cause that makes the water move in that pattern. The disturbed H2O molecules move away from the area of pressure.


Which direction do molecules naturally move?

they naturally move left because all the molecules need to reach equilibrium


Why Does osmosis occur if a cell is placed in an isotonic solution?

The water molecules are at a dynamic equilibrium, which means that equal amounts of water move into and out of the cell at the same time.
