How does salted cucumber regain its form after putting it in water ?
Answers
Answer:
Osmosis: Adding salt to sliced cucumbers draws out the extra moisture in the vegetable, through a process called osmosis. Over time, the salt absorbs the water from the cucumber.
Answer:
> As we put cucumber in salt the water present inside the cell comes out
> because of plasmolysis in which water flows out from the region of low concentration of solute to high concentration of solute since the solution is hypertonic ..
> In easy word water flows from high water concentration to low water concentration..
> Does the cells of cucumbers shrinks.
>> But as soon as we put it into the fresh water the reverse process takes place as the water now acts as "hypotonic solution" so the cell will take up all the loosed water again and will gain its shape.
