Explain how the use of distilled water in place of this saline solution would be expected to upset the patient's homeostasis?

The saline solution used in hospital I.V.s is a solution with about the same water concentration as the human body. If distilled water were used instead, the imbalance of concentrations of salt between the water and the body would cause cells to react, and the process of osmosis to cause them to bloat up with water, potentially damaging them.


What do saline solutions evaporated taste like?

Saline solutions are ones that contain salt...if you evaporate a saline solution, you recover the dissolved salt, therefore an evaporated saline solution tastes like the salt that it is.


Is Saline a suspension?

that question does not make sense... do you mean are the salts in a saline SOLUTION in suspension? No... they are in solution. If you tried to seperate the salt from the water you could not unless you bolied off the water/cooled it down


What is an example of a hypotonic solution?

A hypotonic solution has less than normal tension: hypo = less, and tonic = tonicity, the concentration of solute. Examples of hypotonic solutions: (1) Sports drinks that contain salts / electrolytes (2) physiologically: a. 0.45% NaCl (half-normal saline solution); since normal saline is 0.9% NaCl, any solution less than 9% is hypotonic b. dextrose 2.5% in water c. dextrose 2% in water

How do you make a 9 percent saline solution?

To make a 9 percent saline solution, start by preparing a 100 percent salt solution. With a bottle of 100 percent salt water, take 9 percent and dilute with distilled water to make a 9 percent saline solution.


How do you prepare a Normal Saline Solution being use in 100ml of distilled water?

To prepare a Normal Saline Solution in 100ml of distilled water, you would add 0.9g of sodium chloride (NaCl) to the water. This concentration of 0.9% NaCl is considered isotonic and mimics the salt concentration of our body fluids. Stir the solution until the salt is completely dissolved before use.


Why give a dehydrated person saline solution in an iv rather than distilled water?

Saline is distilled water with salt added into it. Dehydration isn't just the excessive loss of body water, it's also an electrolytic imbalance. When the body is dehydrated, salts have been depleted.


Is eye wash distilled water?

Eye wash is usually sterile saline solution so that it does not burn or sting when placed on the eye.


What is physiodose NaCl 9?

This a saline solution with the concentration of 0,9 g NaCl/100 mL distilled water. This is a isotonic solution; the meaning is that the osmotic pressure of the this solution is equal to the osmotic pressure of the blood serum.


What type of solution is saline solution?

Saline is a homogenous solution of salt in water.


Why is a dehydrated individual given a saline solution rather than water?

The fluid in our bodies is composed of 0.9 Sodium Chloride. An individual will recover from dehydration much quicker when given a saline solution rather than just plain water.


What is the relationship between distilled water and salty water?

Both are made up of 2 hydrogen atoms bonded with an oxygen atom. The difference is that distilled water is pure water, saline or salty water has sodium chloride dissolved into the solution.


Is saline solution a basic?

No, saline solution is not a basic solution. It is a neutral solution composed of a mixture of sodium chloride (salt) and water.


Why is ti advisable to use normal saline solution rather than water?

Not sure what you are using saline solution for but i would say that saline solution is steril and water is not.
