Two solutions, A and B, have the same osmolality. What does that mean?

A) Solution A has more solute particles than solution B.
B) Solution B has more solute particles than solution A.
C) Both solutions have the same number of solute particles.
D) Solution A is water and sugar; solution B is water and salt.
E) Solution A is pure water, and solution B is water and salt.

Osmolality

The concentration of solutes per kilogram of solvent in a solution, important in regulating water balance and solute concentration in the body.

Solute Particles

Tiny components of a solution that are dissolved in a solvent, contributing to the chemical and physical properties of the solution.

Pure Water

Water that has been purified to remove impurities, consisting only of H2O molecules.
