Calculate the osmotic pressure of 0.500 M sodium chloride at 25oC.?
The osmotic pressure is 24,44 at.
Why Albumin and Glucose have the same osmotic pressure?
Albumin and glucose have the same osmotic pressure because they are isotonic compounds.
Compare the osmotic tolerance of bacterial an fungi?
In general, fungi are have higher osmotic tolerance than bacteria. However, the osmotic tolerance really depend on the species of the bacteria and fungi.
Is increasing osmotic pressure within joint a function of synovial fluid?
No, increasing osmotic pressure within a joint is not a function of synovial fluid. Osmotic pressure is the force that drives the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, and it is determined by solute concentration. The synovial fluid's main function is to lubricate and nourish the joint, not to influence osmotic pressure.
How osmotic pressure helps in translocation?
Translocation is caused due to the change in the osmotic pressure in the upper and lower part of a tree/plant.when there is a difference of water content in the upper part and the lower part then the water will move towards the upper region where endosmosis has taken place. this translocation takes place with the help of sieve tubes.
What is osmotic rate?
the change of osmotic pressure over time
How do net hydrostatic pressure and net osmotic pressure each change along the length of a capillary?
Net osmotic pressure stays about the same and net hydrostatic pressure decreases.
Why is sterile water not ideal when preparing a dilution series?
Because it will change the osmotic pressure .
What is the meaning of osmotic?
Pertaining to, or having the property of, osmose; as, osmotic force.
What is the osmotic coefficient of NaCl?
The osmotic coefficient of sodium chloride is 0,93.
How do osmotic saline laxatives work?
The osmotic saline laxative work by causing an osmotic effect. This osmotic effect takes place primarily within the small intestines. This causes, eventually, a movement of the bowels.
What is so important about the osmotic effect of a solution?
The osmotic effect of a solution is its ability to change the flow of water from itself to another solution that it can access. For instance, if you are injecting a high-osmotic solution directly into the blood stream, you can cause the patient to become dehydrated because the solution will pull the water from the patient's body tissues into the blood stream until it is equalized between the body tissues' osmotic force and the solution's osmotic force. In contrast, if you inject a solution that is too dilute, you can cause cells to rupture as the water from the dilute solution filters into the cells to try to equalize the osmotic forces between the cell's interiors and the solution.
What is it called when cells burst because of osmotic pressure?
Cytolysis or Osmotic-lysis
What is the relationship between TDS and osmotic pressure?
TDS increases the osmotic pressure. From the formula, Osmotic pressure = CRT. C as the concentration in mol / L; R = gas constant; T = temperature. The higher the concentration of the solids, the higher is its osmotic pressure.
Calculate the osmotic pressure of 0.500 M sodium chloride at 25oC.?
The osmotic pressure is 24,44 at.
What is the component of plasma that maintains the osmotic pressure of blood?
The component of plasma that maintains the osmotic pressure of blood is protein. The protein albumin and others maintain osmotic pressure in blood.
Are the terms ''hypertonic'' and ''hyperosmotic'' same?
No. Hypertonic can be seen as hypo-osmotic and same for hypotonic and hyper-osmotic
