Question

what will happen when a shelled egg is kept in pure water and concentrated salt solution

Answer 1

Answer:

Eggs soaked in distilled water will gain mass and appear dramatically swollen. Eggs in dilute salt solutions will gain mass, and even those in very concentrated solutions might gain mass. Eggs buried in salt or other dry media should lose mass. The de-shelled eggs serve as good models of human cells.

Answer 2

Answer:

The egg when kept in pure water, it bulges because the water concentration is lower in the egg and higher in the surrounding medium .So water rushes into lower concentration from the higher concentration. This is known as hypotonic solution.

The egg when kept in salt solution,it shrinks because the water concentration is higher in the egg and lower in the surrounding medium .So water rushes from the higher concentration to the lower concentration (osmosis). This is known as hypertonic solution.
