The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Isotonic solutions have same osmotic pressures For two solutions: $\pi_{1}=c_{1} R T, \pi_{2}=c_{2} R T $ or $ \pi_{1}=\pi_{2}=$ $\therefore c_{1}=c_{2}$

Osmosis

Osmosis is a passive process and happens without any expenditure of energy. It involves the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to lower concentration until the concentrations become equal on either side of the membrane.

There are three different types of solutions:

  • Isotonic Solution is one that has the same concentration of solutes both inside and outside the cell.
  • Hypertonic solution is one that has a higher solute concentration outside the cell than inside.
  • Hypotonic solution is one that has a higher solute concentration inside the cell than outside.
