If the solution were pure water you would die. When blood cells are exposed to pure water the increased salts in the cell cause the water to flow in and would cause the red blood cells to burst (this is called lysis). The blood itself is a little salty (which is why you rinse your eyes with saline). The IV bags are usually plain saline, sometimes they are saline mixed with a form of sugar. The sugar provides energy for the body. (it is not table sugar)
What else can I help you with?
What is the gas oxygen used for?
oxigen in it's pure form is mostly used in hospitals for treatment of patients with poor breathing.
Is pure water classified as a solution?
Yes, pure water can be classified as a solution because it is a homogeneous mixture of water molecules.
How would you separate an alcohol-water solution into pure alcohol and pure water?
distillation
Is sugar pure water a pure substance or a mixture?
cake
Is household amonia or pure water a basic solution?
Pure water is the standard for a neutral fluid (neither acidic or basic.) Ammonia is a basic solution.
Is pure water a solution in chemistry?
Water is pure, not a solution.
Is household water pure or a solution?
solution
Is water a saltwater solution?
No. Pure water is a compound, which is a pure substance. A saltwater solution is a mixture of water and salt, and is not a pure substance.
What is the gas oxygen used for?
oxigen in it's pure form is mostly used in hospitals for treatment of patients with poor breathing.
What is oxygenated gas used for?
oxigen in it's pure form is mostly used in hospitals for treatment of patients with poor breathing.
Is pure water classified as a solution?
Yes, pure water can be classified as a solution because it is a homogeneous mixture of water molecules.
How would you separate an alcohol-water solution into pure alcohol and pure water?
distillation
When a cell is in pure water it is in this type of solution?
hypotonic
Is sugar pure water a pure substance or a mixture?

Is household amonia or pure water a basic solution?
Pure water is the standard for a neutral fluid (neither acidic or basic.) Ammonia is a basic solution.
Is sugar a mixture or a solution?
Pure sugar is a compound, which is a pure substance. If you dissolve sugar in water, you will have a homogeneous mixture, which is a solution.
What happens to the pH of an acidic solution if pure water is added?
Adding pure water to an acidic solution will dilute the solution, causing the pH to increase. This is because the concentration of H+ ions, which determine the acidity of the solution, decreases as more water is added.
