Question

6. Explanation of saturated, unsaturated, and supersaturated solutions with examples.​

Answer 1

saturated solution: A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved at that particular temperature is called a saturated solution.

unsaturated solution: A solution which is capable of dissolving more solute than it already contains at the same temperature is called as unsaturated solution.

supersaturated solution: A solution which contains more of the solute than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal conditions is called a supersaturated solution .for example ,carbonated water

Answer 2

Saturated solution-A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved under the condition at which the solution exists.

Unsaturated Solution-A solution (with less solute than the saturated solution) that completely dissolves, leaving no remaining substances

Super saturated solution-A supersaturated solution contains more dissolved solute than required for preparing a saturated solution and can be prepared by heating a saturated solution, adding more solute, and then cooling it gently. Excess dissolved solute crystallizes by seeding supersaturated solution with a few crystals of the solute.
