A 0.1M solution of glucose is isosmotic to a 0.05M solution of NaCl.

True: ; False:
Both solution have the same osmolarity: 0.1 osmol/L

A solution containing 0.1M of glucose and 0.05M of NaCl is hyperosmotic to a solution containing 0.1M of CaCl2.

True: ; False:
It is the solution of CaCl2 (0.3 osmol/L) that is hyperosmotic to the solution of glucose and NaCl (0.2 osm/L)

The intracellular fluid of a red blood cell (0.3 osmol/L) is hyposmotic to a solution of 0.3M glucose.

True: ; False:
Both solutions are isosmotic: they have the same osmolarity 0.3osmol/L
