isotonic means that the solution is neither hypotonic, nor hypertonic. Thus, it won't make water inside your cells go out, and the water from the solution won't go to inside of your cells. This means that the solution contains about the same amount of dissolved substances as cytoplasm of your cells.

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.
What does the loss of isotonic solution lead to?
The loss of isotonic solution leads to either swelling or shrinking of cells.
What is a isotonic solution?
An isotonic solution is a solution with the same concentration of solutes as another solution, resulting in no net movement of water across a cell membrane. This type of solution helps maintain cell shape and function by preventing osmotic pressure from building up.
If a cell is dropped in any solution and the cell does not change size by either shrinking or swelling what is the solution?
isotonic
What contains of isotonic solution?
An isotonic solution contains solutes that are at the same concentration as those found in human cells. The most common isotonic solution used in medicine is 0.9% saline solution, which has the same osmolarity as blood. It is used to replenish fluids and electrolytes in the body.
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.
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 the solution of isotonic?
It depends on the solution.
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.
What is the purpose of a eye wash?
This is usually a one off use solution used to wash out debris or infection that may be found in the eye. Eye wash should not be shared as it risks contamination and spread of infection.
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.
Can you use eye irrigating solution eye-wash for normal saline solution for wound care?

An eye is to be washed with a solution If the eye has an osmotic pressure of 8.50 ATM at 37.00 C determine the concentration of solute particles in water that will give an isotonic solution?
To find the concentration of solute particles in water for an isotonic solution, you need to match the osmotic pressure of the eye (8.50 atm) with the osmotic pressure of the solution (about 6.65 atm for human cells). Use the formula π = iMRT, where i is the van't Hoff factor, M is the molarity, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature in kelvin. By equating the two osmotic pressures and solving for M, you can determine the concentration of solute particles needed for an isotonic solution.
