5.) A medical student gives a dehydrated patient 1 L of pure distilled water via IV. Assume the total plasma volume is 2 L and RBC volume is 2 L. and at typical conditions that osmolarity is 300 mOsm/L. Find the new RBC volume and osmolarity for this patient. A nurse saves the poor patient by giving them l L of sucrose solution. What osmolarity of sucrose will restore the RBC volume to 2L?
