Theoratical Background
Osmosis
If a semi-permeable membrane is used to separate solutions of different solute
concentrations, a phenomenon known as osmosis occurs in which solvent molecules
cross the membrane from lower to higher concentration to establish a concentration
equilibrium.
Osmotic Pressure
The pressure driving this movement is called osmotic pressure and is governed by the
number of "particles" of solute in solution.
Solutions which contain fewer particles and exert a lower osmotic pressure than 0.9%
saline are called hypotonic and those exerting higher osmotic pressures are referred to
as hypertonic.
Solutions containing the same concentration of particles and thus exerting equal
osmotic pressures are called iso-osmotic. A 0.9% solution of NaCl (Normal Saline) is
iso-osmotic with blood and tears.
Materials
Procedure
At first 9gm of sodium chloride (NaCl) was weighted accurately. 500ml of distilled
water was taken in a beaker and added 9gm NaCl and mixed it properly. Then
distilled water was added to make the volume up to 1000 ml. Labeled it and stored in
a dry place.

Isotonic solution
Theoratical Background:
Density:-
It is define as mass per unit volume of substance (liquid) at specific temperature
ρ=m/V
Unit:- g/m
Specific gravity:-
It is the ratio of weight of substance to that of water at specific temperature.
SG=ρ s / ρ W
Unit
As it is a ratio so it has no unit.
Procedure:-
Clean the pycnometer with water and rinse it with acetone . Then dry it properly.
After drying weight the dry pycnometer. Then filled it with water and weight . Repeat
this step with given liquid. Weight of the water or glycerine is calculated by
subtracting the weight of empty pycnometer from the weight of dry pycnometer
which is filled with water or glycerine.

Sulphur Ointment
Introduction
It is a white crystalline solid, less soluble in cold water but more soluble in hot water.
Borax dissolves in water to give an alkaline solution.
Material
Proceduce
First of all powdered hydrous calcium borate was moxed with sodium carbonate
solution and boiled.
After boiling for 2-3 minutes it was filtered to remove the precipitated calcium
carbonate.
The filtrate was allowed to cool down and get concentrated.
After cooling white crystals of borax were formed which were separated and dried.
Uses
Material
Borax Pwder
Materials
Ferric hydroxide
Citric acid
Ammonium hydroxide
Proceduce :
Aqueous solution of citric acid was prepared by dissolving citric acid in distilled
water.
Weighed amount of ferric hydroxide was added into aqueous solutiopn of citric acid
followed by the addition of ammonium hydroxide.
The resultant mixture was heated on a medium heat until the evaporation of water.
Mixture obtainedthus ground to a powder and stored in a desicator.
Use :
Nutrient, dietary supplement, anticaking agent for sodium chloride
Agricultural chemicals
As a food additive and as an acidity regulator.
