this is a question my son wrote in homework diary!!!! help
He washed his contact lenses in the saline solution. The IV was a saline drip to keep him hydrated.
Saline solutions are ones that contain salt...if you evaporate a saline solution, you recover the dissolved salt, therefore an evaporated saline solution tastes like the salt that it is.
that question does not make sense... do you mean are the salts in a saline SOLUTION in suspension? No... they are in solution. If you tried to seperate the salt from the water you could not unless you bolied off the water/cooled it down
A hypotonic solution has less than normal tension: hypo = less, and tonic = tonicity, the concentration of solute. Examples of hypotonic solutions: (1) Sports drinks that contain salts / electrolytes (2) physiologically: a. 0.45% NaCl (half-normal saline solution); since normal saline is 0.9% NaCl, any solution less than 9% is hypotonic b. dextrose 2.5% in water c. dextrose 2% in water
in iv use. the solution contains 0.9% sodium chloride.
Normal Saline 0.9% is called an isotonic solution. A 0.0% saline solution is called a hypotonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse into the red blood cells and cause them to burst open. A 10% saline solution is called a hypertonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse out of the red blood cells, making them shrivel up and shrink.
Sydney Ringer invented the saline solution.
Saline is a homogenous solution of salt in water.
saline solution is salted water with 0.85% of salt
Saline solution is a mixture of salt and water.
Not sure what you are using saline solution for but i would say that saline solution is steril and water is not.
Cucumber shrink in saline solution, because the saline solution draws out the water from the cucumber causing it to shrink. -Jaralzila
Yes this saline is a hypertonic solution but 3% saline is also not normal. There is nothing "normal" about it. There is only one "normal saline" and that is 0.9%.
The mineral found in saline solution is salt (sodium chloride).
What is the difference between normal saline solution and ringer's lactate solution?
