You have 60 % of water in your body. 40% in the intro-cellular compartment and 20 % in the Extra cellular compartment. So it comes to be 40 liters in a 'Average' man weighing 70 kg.It means 28 liters in intro-cellular and 14 liters in extra cellular compartment. Human body has carried with it the part of sea, probably as a extra cellular compartment.Isotonic means that tonicity of fluid equal to body fluid.In extra cellular compartment, Sodium chloride is present mainly. It contains 'about' 150 mili mole of Sodium chloride.One mole of Sodium chloride contains 58.5 gram/liter of it.Mass number of Sodium being 23 and that of Chlorine is 35.5. So added together it makes 58.5 gram/liter. One mole of Glucose contains 180 grams/ liter. (C 6 H 12 O 6 means 126 plus 112 plus 16* 6, it means mass numbers of the respective elements.) (It means 1000 mili mole/liter.) So 9 gram/liter or 0.9 % of sodium chloride or 0.9 gram/100 ml, makes Isotonic saline solution. So Isotonic solution is compatible with 'Human' normal saline solution.It will neither make cells to shrink nor swell. So 0.45 % Sodium chloride solution is Hypo-tonic and 0.9% Sodium chloride with 5 % Glucose solution is Hyper-tonic.(In your body, Glucose will be rapidly utilized to give energy and you get Isotonic saline solution.) Normal saline solution means in which 1 mole of molecules dissolve/ liter and is a term used in chemistry. So when you say Normal saline, it means it contains 58.5 gram/liter of sodium chloride and will kill the patient in no time, after few infusions. So previously human normal saline and then 'Isotonic' saline solution is the correct term to be used. The normal saline solution available in market is not "Normal'. It is 'Isotonic' solut
What else can I help you with?
A solution that contains the same level of NaCl as that found in red blood cells is called?
isotonic solution
A water solution that has the same salt concentration as the cells is said to be?
An isotonic solution. This means that the concentration of solutes in the solution is the same as the concentration of solutes inside the cells, resulting in no net movement of water across the cell membrane.
Does osmosis occur in an isotonic solution?
In an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water across the cell membrane, as the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is equal. Therefore, osmosis does not occur in an isotonic solution.
How can you determine whether a solution is hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic?
You can determine if a solution is hypotonic, hypertonic, or isotonic by comparing the concentration of solutes in the solution to the concentration of solutes in the surrounding environment. If the solution has a lower concentration of solutes than the surrounding environment, it is hypotonic. If the solution has a higher concentration of solutes, it is hypertonic. If the concentrations are equal, the solution is isotonic.
What is the PH of isotonic solution?
The pH of an isotonic solution can vary depending on the specific components present. In general, isotonic solutions are designed to have a physiologically neutral pH around 7.4 to match the pH of bodily fluids like blood.
Using the example of a cell in a sugar solution what is meant by an isotonic solution?
It basically means that it is equal or the same
Does isotonic mean a fluid containing salt and minerals?
If you meant an isotonic solution, an isotonic solution is a solution which contains the same concentration of solutes as the cell it is being compared to. This creates dynamic equilibrium, as the amount of solutes entering the cell and leaving the cell is the same.
What is the solution of isotonic?
It depends on the solution.
Is Vinegar an Isotonic solution?
No, vinegar is not an isotonic solution. Vinegar is an acetic acid solution, which means it has a different osmotic pressure compared to isotonic solutions.
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
What is meant by Isotonic glucose solution solution?
An isotonic glucose solution is a solution that has the same concentration of glucose as body fluids, such as blood. This means that the solution will not cause water to move in or out of cells, helping to maintain the balance of fluids within the body. Isotonic glucose solutions are often used in medical settings to provide hydration and energy to patients.
A solution that has an equal amount of particles?
A solution that has an equal amount of particles is called an isotonic solution. In an isotonic solution, the concentration of solutes is the same inside and outside the cells, leading to no net movement of water across the cell membrane. This allows cells to maintain their shape and size.
A solution that contains the same level of NaCl as that found in red blood cells is called?
isotonic solution
How do isotonic solutions and equilibrium differ?
isotonic solution, equilibrium
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.
What does the loss of isotonic solution lead to?
The loss of isotonic solution leads to either swelling or shrinking of cells.
An example of an isotonic solution?
Normal Saline Solution, or anything that contains 0.9% NaCl
