Is urea osmotically active?

Yes, urea is considered to be osmotically active. It can contribute to the osmotic pressure of a solution by attracting water molecules and affecting the overall concentration of solutes.


Is lactic acid osmotically active?

Yes, lactic acid is considered osmotically active because it can contribute to changes in the osmotic pressure of a solution. When present in a high concentration, lactic acid can affect the movement of water across cell membranes.


Are osmotically active substances simple diffusion or active transport?

simple diffusion.


What is an osmotically active substance?

It is a solute that causes osmosis to occur. For instance, if a solution contains sucrose and the membrane is impermeable to sucrose,, water will move out of the cell and into the solution to dilute it. Hence the solution is hypertonic. Sucrose would be considered an osmotically active solution in this case because it induces osmosis of water across a membrane.


Why does glucose and Sodium chloride behave osmotic ally different?

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.


If a substance is unable to diffuse across a membrane we say the membrane is?

osmotically active


Is the inductor a passive component or active component?

passive


Is transistor active or passive element?

it is a active component.

What does it mean to say two solutions are isotonic?

Osmolarity of a solution depends on concentration of the osmotically active particles in a solution. if 2 solutions have equal concentrations of such solvents these solutions are said to be isotonic to each other. If one molecule of any solvent dissociates into 2 particles in a solution, like sodium chloride, then half of its gram molecular weight/L will have same osmotic effect as one gram molecular weight of glucose/L, which provides one particle/molecule in a solution.


What is the Osmolality of 5 percent dextrose with normal saline?

The osmolality of 5% dextrose with normal saline will be approximately 560 mOsm/kg. This calculation takes into account the osmolality contributions of both dextrose and normal saline components. It is important to note that osmolality measures the concentration of osmotically active particles in a solution.
