Why does glucose and Sodium chloride behave osmotic ally different?

∙ 11y ago
Glucose and sodium chloride behave differently osmotically because each formula unit of glucose behaves as a single osmotically active unit, but each formula unit of sodium chloride behaves as two osmotically active units: Each formula unit dissociates in solution into two ions, and the two ions act as osmotically independent units.

How is the compound sodium chloride different from the elements of which it is composed?
sodium chloride as a compound has different physical and chemical properties than sodium and chloride not mixed together
Why does glucose C6H12O6 and sodium chloride dissolve in water and please provide websites?
well i got this answer from my chemistry teacher and the answer is that sodium chloride dissolves in water because it has ions both anions and cations
Which is faster to melt glucose or sodium chloride?
Glucose (Melting point: 146° C) will melt faster than NaCl (Melting point: 801° C)
Is an electric current conducted by a solution of sodium chloride?
Solid sodium chloride is not an electrolyte.Sodium chloride in water solutions or molten sodium chloride are electrolytes.
Are the properties of chlorine the same as the properties of sodium chloride?
The properties of chlorine are highly different from sodium chloride one of the differences is the boiling point. Chlorine has a melting point of 171.6 K whereas sodium chloride has a melting point of 1074 K.
Is sodium chloride made from glucose?
Glucose is not made from sodium chloride.
What is the osmotic coefficient of NaCl?
The osmotic coefficient of sodium chloride is 0,93.
How do make a hypotonic solution an isotonic solution?
by addition of osmotic agents like : glucose, mannitol or addition of electrolytes like : sodium chloride
Calculate the osmotic pressure of 0.500 M sodium chloride at 25oC.?
The osmotic pressure is 24,44 at.
Is glucose similar to sodium chloride?
no
Methanol CH3OH would act like NaCl or like glucose?
Methanol, glucose and sodium chloride are very different compounds and they react different.
Sodium chloride is the anticoagulant choice for?
Glucose
What is formed when glucose react with sodium chloride?
The chemical formula of sodium chloride is NaCl. The chemical formula of glucose is C6H12O6.
One mole of sodium chloride and one mole of glucose are dissolved in the same volume of water in separate containers what happens to their colligative properties?
Both sodium chloride and glucose will exhibit the same colligative properties in the water, as these properties depend on the number of particles dissolved in the solution, rather than the specific type of particle. Therefore, both solutions will have the same boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure.
Why sodium chloride is harder substance at room temperature than glucose?
Sodium chloride forms a crystalline lattice structure that is held together by strong ionic bonds between sodium and chloride ions, making it a harder substance. In contrast, glucose is a molecular solid with weaker intermolecular forces between individual glucose molecules. These weaker forces result in a lower hardness for glucose compared to sodium chloride.
Why your bodies need sodium chloride?
Sodium (from sodium chloride) is indispensable for lifebecause it is important for:- regulation of blood pressure, pH, blood volume, osmotic pressure- transmission of nervous impulse- correct neurons function
What are the functions of sodium chloride?
Sodium (from sodium chloride) is indispensable for life because it is important for:- regulation of blood pressure, pH, blood volume, osmotic pressure- transmission of nervous impulse- correct neurons function
