-hypotonic

• A)an ionic compound which attracts water molecules from the atmosphere
• B)a solution in which no more solute will dissolve and in which excess solute is visible in the container
• C)a substance which dissociates completely in solution,providing a relatively large number of ions to conduct electricity

• E)an ionic compound which holds water molecules within its crystalline structure
• F)refers to two solutions having the same osmolarity
• G)a substance which does not dissociate in solution and therefore does not conduct electricity
• H)a solution in which more solute is dissolved than predicted for that particular temperature
• I)refers to a solution having a greater osmolarity than 0.30 Osmol
• J)the swelling and bursting of a red blood cell when placed in a solution of lower osmolarity than the cell itself
• K)the shrinking of a red blood cell when placed in a solution of greater osmolarity than the cell itself
