What are isotonic solutions? How do they differ from hypotonic and Hypertonic solutions?

Answer:
  A hypotonic solution in which it contain more solute than solvent.example a lot of salt (solute)
dissovled in water (solvent)

isotonic  solution in which solute and solvent are equally distrubuted for example a cell normally wants to remain in an isotonic solution where concentration of liquid inside it is equal to the concentration of the liquid outside of it.

hypertonic solution in which contains more solvent than solute.

What is the relationship between the eubllioscopic constant and the elevation in boiling point of the solution?

Answer:

the elevation of boiling point (ΔTb) is directly proportional to the molal concentration of
the solute in a solution. Thus
ΔTb ∝ m 
or ΔTb = Kb
Here m (molality) is the number of moles of solute dissolved in 1 kg
of solvent and the constant of proportionality, Kb is called Boiling Point
Elevation Constant or Molal Elevation Constant (Ebullioscopic
Constant). The unit of Kb is K kg mol-1.


Tb = Kb.m.     or     =  TbmKb =  Ebulliscopic constant.

Why is vapour pressure of solution of glucose in water is lower than that of water?


Answer:

The vapour pressure of pure solvent decrease when a non- volatile solute is added to the solvent this is because on adding the solute, a fewer number of water molecules are present at the surface which can evaporate as some of the surface area is occupied by non- volatile solute molecules thereby decreasing the vapour pressure of the solution thus the vapour pressure of the solution of the glucose in water lower than that of water.
