It is hypertonic.
no, It's isotonic.
A solution with a concentration of NaCl higher than 9 g/L is hypertonic.
A 10% NaCl solution is hypertonic to red blood cells. This means that the concentration of solutes outside the cells is higher than inside, causing water to move out of the cells, potentially leading to their shrinkage or dehydration.
10 percent NaCl is hypertonic to red blood cells. This means that the concentration of solutes outside the red blood cell is higher than inside, causing water to move out of the cell, potentially leading to the cell shrinking or shrinking.
Yes
Yes it is
In a 10% NaCl solution, which is a strong hypertonic solution, red blood cells would shrink and shrivel up due to the high concentration of salt outside the cell causing water to move out of the cell through osmosis, leading to cell dehydration and eventual cell death.
it is hypotonicQuoting from someone else's reply to this question What_is_an_example_of_a_hypotonic_solution,"0.45% NaCl (half-normal saline solution); since normal saline is 0.9% NaCl, any solution less than 9% is hypotonic".Doesn't this mean that 10% is hypertonic?
If you expose red blood cells to a high concentration of NaCl (salt), water will move out of the cells through osmosis, causing them to shrink and potentially undergo hemolysis (bursting). This process is known as crenation.
Since a 9% saline solution is hypertonic as compared to the cell, it would crenate (crush or shrink).
This is a hypertonic solution.
Because the normal saline solution is 0,9 %.
