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.


Calculate the isotonic coefficient for NaCl if a 07M of NaCl solution equaled the hemolysis of14M glucose solution?

i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2 i = isotonic molar [glucose] / isotonic molar [NaCl] i = 14 M / 7 M = 2


Is 0.90 percent mv glucose isotonic hypotonic or hypertonic?

No,5percent glucose is an isotonic solution. 0.9 percent is for NaCl.


Are 0.9 percent saline and 5.0 percent glucose solutions isotonic?

yes it is isotonic solution.


Is 5 glucose isotonic?

Many chemists (not all) consider this solution as hypotonic.


What are some examples of an isotonic solution for an egg membrane?

An isotonic solution for an egg membrane would have a concentration of solutes that is the same as the concentration inside the egg. Examples include a solution of 0.9% saline or a solution of 5% glucose.


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 Sodium chloride 0.9 percent?

This is an isotonic saline solution; 9 g/L sodium chloride solution in water with added glucose.


Why is 5 percent glucose is isotonic to cellular fluid?

A 5% glucose solution is isotonic to cellular fluid because it has the same osmotic pressure as the fluid inside the cells. This means that the concentration of solutes in the glucose solution is balanced with the concentration of solutes inside the cells, preventing fluid from moving in or out of the cells and maintaining cell volume and shape.


Which of the 3 intravenous solutions isotonic hypotonic hypertonic has more electrolytes andor glucose content - please differentiate the three solutions based on the mentioned content?

Hypertonic solutions have more electrolytes....HYPER meaning greater/more/excessive. Hypotonic have the least electrolyes. Isotonic have the similar electroly (osmolality) as blood. Meaning if you give isotonic solutions, the fluid will saty in the vessels and not move fluids around. Hypertonic solutions will move water from the cells into the vessels (extracellualr) and hypotonic solution will move water from fluid from the vessels into the cells. Glucose is usually an iso or hypertonic solution, but there are different % of glucose in every solution. D5W is an isotonic solution.


How do make a hypotonic solution an isotonic solution?

To make a hypotonic solution isotonic, you would need to add solutes (such as salts or sugars) to increase the concentration of the solution. This additional solute will balance the osmotic pressure between the solution and the cells, making it isotonic. Be sure to measure the concentration carefully to avoid creating a hypertonic solution.
