When you sprinkle salt on an Apple, it draws moisture out of the fruit through a process called osmosis. The salt creates a concentration gradient, causing water from the Apple's cells to move towards the salt to balance the concentration of solutes. This results in the juice leaking out, making the Apple appear wet and releasing its natural sugars and flavors.
