Isotonic saline is 0.9% saline.
Thus, when receiving IV fluids, Normal Saline is often given at a concentration of 0.9% as to be isotonic with blood. Other medical applications necessitate the administration of hyper-/hypotonic saline solutions that would induce various osmotic shifts.

∙ 12y agoAn isotonic solution as in isotonic to your body's cells? Well normal saline is considered isotonic so therefore take regular salt which is (NaCl) Sodium Chloride. Since Normal Saline is isotonic and normal saline is 0.9% NaCl in water. You would need 0.9 grams per 100ml or 900mg per 100mLs. Or you can extrapolate from there 1800mg per 200mls or 450mg per 50mls.

∙ 9y agoI'm attempting to come up with an inquiry lab for my AP Biology class. I plan on having 3 separate solutions, one hypertonic with 25mL of distilled water and 15g of salt, hypotonic with 50mL of distilled water and 5g of salt. I just can't figure out how much salt and water would be needed to make an isotonic solution. (The solutions will be inside of dialysis tubing, which will then be placed in 100mL of distilled water in a glass beaker). I will be measuring the mass of each solution before and after they have been in the beaker for 30mins.

Is water isotonic hypotonic or hypertonic?
Hypertonic solution is one which has higher osmotic concentration and less solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Hypotonic solution is one that possesses lower osmotic concentration and higher solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Isotonic solution is a solution that has same concentration, osmotic as well as solvent, as that of another solution . Pure water is hypotonic but water having salt is isotonic. So,water may be either isotonic or hypotonic
What do isotonic hypotonic and hypertonic deal with?
A hypertonic solution is one containing more solute, a hypotonic solution contains more water, and an isotonic solution contains equal amounts of solute and water. Whether a solution is hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic can determine what happens to the cell. In a hypertonic solution, solute will diffuse into the cell down the concentration gradient. In a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell by osmosis down a water potential gradient, and in an isotonic solution nothing will happen because the concentration and water potential are the same both inside and outside the cell.
Which microscope field contains isotonic bathing solution?
I have the same packet. The answer is C. It took me forever to realize that the pictures were the answers. (: you are so wrong. and its not nice of you to purposely mislead someone looking for help. hypertonic means that the cells will be crenated or shrunk. so the answer is obiviously A
What concentration of solutes is equal the concentration of solutes inside the cell?
when a concentration of something, usually water, is the same inside and outside a cell, it is called an isotonic solution. When there is more inside the cell or membrane, but less outside, the solution is hypotonic. when there is more on the outside , it is known as hypertonic. however, it depends what you are describing
5 percent glucose solution is isotonic for red blood cell if red blood cell are kept in 2 percent glucose solution what will happen to the cells. what such a solution called?
2% glucose solution is considered as a hypotonic solution for that the solution will enter the semi-permeable membrane of the red blood cells causing the cells to explode or burst. Why? It's because RBCs have a higher concentration inside it than that of the 2% glucose solution so the solution will enter the cells.
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.
A water solution that has the same salt concentration as the cells is said to be?
A water solution that has the same salt concentration as the cells is said to be is isotonic.
Is 10 percent glucose solution hypertonic?
No. Everything below 0.9% of NaCl is hypotonic and every solution with concentration over 0.9% is hypertonic solution. Isotonic solution (to blood) is the one that has 0.9% of NaCl, or some other concentration of another compound.
Is 0.90 percent mv glucose isotonic hypotonic or hypertonic?
No,5percent glucose is an isotonic solution. 0.9 percent is for NaCl.
Is it true that a object will swel l in isotonic solution?
It is not true that an object will swell in an isotonic solution because there is no different concentration gradient between the object and the isotonic solution
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

What is the behavior of cells in isotonic solution?
An isotonic solution is one in which the ionic environment is similar to that of the cytoplasm. Hence, when a cell is placed in an isotonic solution, there is no net diffusion of water into or out of the cell. The cell remains intact.
What is isotonic hypertonic hypotonic?
Hypertonic solution is one which has higher osmotic concentration and less solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Hypotonic solution is one that possesses lower osmotic concentration and higher solvent concentration as compared to another solution. Isotonic solution is a solution that has same concentration, osmotic as well as solvent, as that of another solution .
Are 0.9 percent saline and 5.0 percent glucose solutions isotonic?
yes it is isotonic solution.
Why would a solution be called isotonic?
A solution with the same ratio of solute to solvent (concentration) as another solution is called isotonic. If it has more solvent and thus a lower solute concentration, then it is called hypertonic.
What is the difference between an isotonic solution and equilibrium?
equilibrium is reaching that state of equal concentration. isotonic is how you describe the cell that has equal concentration.
