Question

If you are provided with some vegetables to cook, you generally add salt into the vegetables during this process. After adding salt vegetables release water. What mechanism is responsible for this? Give scientific explanation for this process.

Answer 1

when salt is added to vegetables , they release water , this is because of the process of exosmosis.
the vegetables have more water content than in salt so, the water moves from higher concentration (from the vegetables) to lower concentration (towards the salt).
