Question

what is a Hypotonic Solution​

Answer 1

Answer:

Tonicity is a measure of the effective osmotic pressure gradient; the water potential of two solutions separated by a semipermeable cell membrane. In other words, tonicity is the relative concentration of solutes dissolved in solution which determine the direction and extent of diffusion.

Explanation:

Hypotonic solution: A solution that contains fewer dissolved particles (such as salt and other electrolytes) than is found in normal cells and blood. Hypotonic solutions are commonly used to give fluids intravenously to hospitalized patients in order to treat or avoid dehydration.

I hope this answer helpful for you.

Answer 2

SOLUTION :

A solution is said to be as hypotonic solution, if the medium surrounding the cell has a higher water concentration than the cell, which means the solution is very dilute and the cell will gain water instead of losing water, this type of solution is known as Hypotonic solution.
