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)
