Solute potentials and pressure potentials of three solution A,B\mathrm{A, B} and C\mathrm{C} are as follows:

Ψs(A)=−7 bar, Ψs(B)=−11 bar, Ψs(C)=−5 bar Ψp(A)=5 bar, Ψp(B)=8 bar, Ψp(C)=3 bar \begin{aligned} & \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{A})=-7 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{B})=-11 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{s}}(\mathrm{C})=-5 \text { bar } \\ & \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{A})=5 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{B})=8 \text { bar, } \Psi_{\mathrm{p}}(\mathrm{C})=3 \text { bar } \end{aligned}

On the basis of given data select the incorrect statement.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
All the solutions A, B and C are isotonic with respect to each other
Option D (All the solutions A, B and C are isotonic with respect to each other) is the incorrect statement because isotonic solutions have the same water potential, which is not the case for solutions A, B, and C.
