Isotonic solutions have the same:
Vapour pressure
Freezing temperature
Osmotic pressure
Boiling temperature
Two solutions having the same osmotic pressure at a given temperature are called isotonic solutions. When such solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane, no osmosis occurs between them. For example, the osmotic pressure associated with the fluid inside the blood cell is equivalent to that of 0.9% (mass/volume) sodium chloride solution, making it isotonic with blood plasma .
