Question
- identify where on your graph you expect to find the molarity at which a nacl solution would be isotonic with the potato cells.
options: x - intercept, the minimum point, y - intercept, the slope of the trend line
Brief Explanations
An isotonic solution has the same solute concentration as the potato cells, so there will be no net movement of water, meaning the % change in mass is 0. On the graph, this occurs where the trend line crosses the x-axis (y=0), which is the x-intercept.
