Calculate Osmotic Gap



Formula

The formula to calculate the Osmotic Gap is:

\[ OG = \left( \frac{TDS_i - TDS_f}{TDS_i} \right) \times 100 \]

What is Osmotic Gap?

The Osmotic Gap is a measure used to evaluate the difference between the initial and final total dissolved solids in a solution. It is expressed as a percentage and helps in understanding the changes in solute concentration.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ OG = \left( \frac{300 - 250}{300} \right) \times 100 = 16.67\% \]

The Osmotic Gap is 16.67%.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ OG = \left( \frac{500 - 450}{500} \right) \times 100 = 10\% \]

The Osmotic Gap is 10%.
