Question

definition of saturated solution

Answer 1

The term saturated solution is used in chemistry to define a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent. It is understood that saturation of the solution has been achieved when any additional substance that is added results in a solid precipitate or is let off as a gas.

Answer 2

A saturated solution is a solution in which there is so much solutethat if there was any more, it would not dissolve.
When a saturated solution is placed in contact with additional solute, solute neither dissolves nor is deposited.

When water, or any solvent, has dissolved as much of any substance as it can, it is a saturated solution.

A saturated solution is a solution in which there is so much solute that if there was any more, it would not dissolve.
