Normal saline is 0.9% weight/volume sodium chloride to water. This is 9 grams per litre.

NaCl has a molecular weight of 58.5, sodium (Na) has a weight of 23, which is 39.3% of the molecular weight. So sodium is 39.3% of the weight.

1 litre of saline has 9 grams, 250ml is a quarter of a litre, so has 9/4 grams = 2.25 grams.

39.3% of 2.25 g is 0.884 grams of sodium.

Normal Saline what is the classification?

i just want to know the classification of normal saline?It is just a 0.9% solution of table salt (sodium chloride) dissolved in water. By comparison, ocean water is about 3.5% which is much saltier.


How much sodium chloride must be added to one liter of water to make normal saline?

The answer is 9 g NaCl.


How much of a 30 percent sodium chloride stock solution is needed to make 10 ml of a normal saline solution?

The volume is 0,3 mL.


What is the composition of physiological saline?

A physiological saline is a solution of salts and sugars intended to act as a medium for growing or maintaining live tissue. The solution mimics the salt concentrations of the tissues' natural environment, while providing some buffering to maintain the pH of the solution. Since different tissues from different species are subject to varying internal environments, a large number of physiological salines have been developed over the last century. For example, the original Ringer's solution was developed to mimic amphibian blood, Hank's solution was intended for human tissue, Cortland's saline was designed for the tissue of freshwater fishes, and phosphate-buffered saline is commonly used as a divalent-free saline that is isotonic with human blood. While the composition of every solution is unique, physiological salines developed for vertebrates (such as those mentioned above) have much in common. Such salines are predominately sodium chloride with a concentration of about 0.9% (or 9.0g/L). In lesser concentrations, they often include: sodium monobasic phosphate, sodium dibasic phosphate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, magnessium chloride, magnessium sulfate, and glucose.

If you lose 15 grams of Sodium How much normal saline do you need in liters?

1g of NaCl is about 17 mmol Na. thus, 15g of Na is about 255 mmol Na. 1 L of normal saline (0.9%) gives 154mmol Na. so, about 1.66L of normal saline gives about 255 mmnol Na. Edited by dejswa . . . 15 g of Na (molecular wt of ~23) is actually 652 mmol of Na. You were calculating the mmol of NaCl. This gives about 4.2 liters of normal saline. Or calculated another way, 0.91% (normal) saline is 9.1 gm of NaCl per liter. Na is ~40% of the wt of NaCl, thus 15 gm of Na represents 37.5 grams of NaCl. Divide by 9.1 and you get about the same answer. That would be quite a deficit of Na. You would have to sweat about 19 liters to lose that much Na, but an 8 hr mtn bike race in the Texas summer would do it.

Why is a dehydrated individual given a saline solution rather than water?

The fluid in our bodies is composed of 0.9 Sodium Chloride. An individual will recover from dehydration much quicker when given a saline solution rather than just plain water.
