Question

Intravenous, or IV, solutions used in medicine must exert the same osmotic pressure as blood to prevent a net flow of water into or out of the blood cells. The proper concentration for an intravenous  NaCl solution is  0.90 g NaCl per 100. mL of solution (sometimes referred to as  0.90% m/v).
 
If the van't Hoff factor of  NaCl  is  ?=1.8, what is the osmotic pressure of blood at body temperature,  37 ∘C?
