Isotonic solutions have definitions that it has the same osmotic pressure as 0.92% w/v aqueous solution of NaCl and has a freezing point of -0.52 °C. Show that these two definitions are in reasonably close agreement given that we are using solution concentrations rather than activities Show that 20.0 g glucose, 2.9 g sodium citrate, 1.5 g potassium chloride, and 3.5 g sodium chloride per liter meets the requirements of being isotonic
