Is 2 percent NaCl hypotonic or hypertonoic?

This is a hypertonic solution.


What is 0.45 percent naCl used for?

This is a hypotonic solution used for the hydration of the organism and to improve the sodium.


Is 45 NaCl hypotonic?

Because the normal saline solution is 0,9 %.


Is 0.8 NaCl a hypertonic solution?

That depends entirely on what solution it is in. Hypotonic and hypertonic are relative terms to compare to solutions usually serperated by a seme-permeable membrane.


Is D5 0.3 naCl a hypotonic solution?

That depends entirely on what is in this solution. Hypotonic and hypertonic are relative terms to compare to solutions usually serperated by a semi-permeable membrane. Relative to a plant cell or e.g. a red blood cell the named solution of 0.3x10-5M NaCl is hypotonic, but compared to sea water it is hyper. A hypotonic solution contains a lesser concentration of impermeable solutes than the the inside cell. When a cell's cytoplasm is bathed in a hypotonic solution the water will be drawn out of the solution and into the cell by osmosis. If water molecules continue to diffuse into the cell, it will cause the cell to swell, up to the point that lysis (rupture) may occur.


Is the solution hypotonic in or out of the cell?

The solution is hypotonic when it is outside of the cell.


Is the solution in the experiment hypotonic or hypertonic?

The solution in the experiment is hypotonic.


Is 10 percent NaCl hypertonic or hypotonic to red blood cells?

A 10% NaCl solution is hypertonic to red blood cells. This means that the concentration of solutes outside the cells is higher than inside, causing water to move out of the cells, potentially leading to their shrinkage or dehydration.


When a cell is in pure water it is in this type of solution?

hypotonic

What is hypotonic and its example?

Hypotonic is a concentration of less solutes compared to that of another solution.
