Jquery animate() opacity working but animating right does not?

Hi i am trying to animate to the right but it doesn't seem to be working but opacity change does work in the same function?

$(document).on("click touchstart tap", ".buttonchat", function () {
   
$('.message').each(function(i) {
   delay =(i)*500;
   
     $(this).delay(delay).animate({
    opacity: 0,
   right: "-150px"

  },1000, function() {
    // Animation complete.
  });
   
   
 });
 });

as you can see in this pen animating to the right does nothing but changing opacity works what's happening? pen: https://codepen.io/uiunicorn/pen/YzZXwJp

thanks in advance

Your messages span will have to have the position: absolute property...

<span class="message" style="width: 18.2105rem; height: 1.26316rem; opacity: 1; position:absolute;">Hello! 👋 I hope you're having a good night</span>

Here's a working pen: https://codepen.io/paulmartin91/pen/RwpPaPL

Here's the explanation from W3 Schools:

By default, all HTML elements have a static position, and cannot be moved. To manipulate the position, remember to first set the CSS position property of the element to relative, fixed, or absolute!

In CSS file you should consider adding "." in the beginning. and Js file here below with corrections.

 $(document).on("click touchstart tap", ".buttonchat", function () {
   
   
   
   $('.message').each(function(i) {
   delay =(i)*500;
   
     $(this).delay(delay).animate({
    "opacity": 0.20 ,
   "right": "0px" , "top": "0px" ,  "background-color" : "green"  

  },1000, function() {
    // Animation complete.
 
  });
   
   
 });
 });
.message{
  left: 0px;
position : absolute ; 
  }
  
.relative{ position : relative ;   }
<button style="width: 200px; height: 100px" class="buttonchat"></button>

<div class="message-main relative">
