the process is osmosiss and the event of bursting is heamolysis
The distilled water outside the red blood cell, since it is 100% water and no salt, is hypotonic (it contains less salt than the red blood cell) to the red blood cell. The red blood cell will gain water, swell ad then burst. The bursting of the red blood cell is called hemolysis.

Your body normally destroys old or faulty red blood cells in the spleen or other parts of your body through a process called hemolysis
