In the experimental conditions described below, how many molecules of dextrose do
you have to add to the extracellular fluid in order to make it iso-osmotic relative to
the intracellular fluid?
Intracellular fluid:
• Number of water molecules = 60
• Number of Dextrose molecules = 6
• Number of Sucrose molecules = 3
Extracellular fluid:
Number of water molecules = 120
• Number of dextrose molecule = ????
• Number of Sucrose molecules = 0
%3D
Enter the number of molecules of dextrose in your answer (format: for 7 enter 7 or
7.00, for 7.5 enter 7.5 or 7.50, for 7.3333 enter 7.33 etc...).
Your Answer:
Do explain.
