An isotonic solution is one where osmotic pressures are equal -one common application is in microbiology when the concentration of a certain chemical is the same inside the cell as outside the cell, meaning an osmotic equilibrium has been reached across that cell membrane.

What is in an isotonic glucose solution?
Isotonic solution is very close to sea water in composition and also concentration. Glucose isotonic solution is an electrolyte solution used for re-hydration. It contains salt, water and glucose.
Is 0.90 percent mv glucose isotonic hypotonic or hypertonic?
No,5percent glucose is an isotonic solution. 0.9 percent is for NaCl.
Calculate the isotonic coefficient for NaCl if a 07M of NaCl solution equaled the hemolysis of14M glucose solution?
i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2
Are 0.9 percent saline and 5.0 percent glucose solutions isotonic?
yes it is isotonic solution.
Is 5 glucose isotonic?
Many chemists (not all) consider this solution as hypotonic.
What is meant by Isotonic glucose solution solution?
This is a solution having an osmotic pressure identical with the pressure inside the cells of the human body.
What is a isotonic solution?
what is an isotonic solution
What is Sodium chloride 0.9 percent?
This is an isotonic saline solution; 9 g/L sodium chloride solution in water with added glucose.
How do make a hypotonic solution an isotonic solution?
by addition of osmotic agents like : glucose, mannitol or addition of electrolytes like : sodium chloride
Is an isotonic solution or hypotonic solution safest for a patient?
Isotonic
Which of the 3 intravenous solutions isotonic hypotonic hypertonic has more electrolytes andor glucose content - please differentiate the three solutions based on the mentioned content?
Hypertonic solutions have more electrolytes....HYPER meaning greater/more/excessive. Hypotonic have the least electrolyes. Isotonic have the similar electroly (osmolality) as blood. Meaning if you give isotonic solutions, the fluid will saty in the vessels and not move fluids around. Hypertonic solutions will move water from the cells into the vessels (extracellualr) and hypotonic solution will move water from fluid from the vessels into the cells. Glucose is usually an iso or hypertonic solution, but there are different % of glucose in every solution. D5W is an isotonic solution.
A solution that has an equal amount of particles?
isotonic
