Differentiate between saturated and unsaturated solutions.
Answers
Answer:A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve at that temperature. Any further addition of solute will result in undissolved solid on the bottom of the container.
An unsaturated solution contains less than the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at that temperature.
A supersaturated solution contains more than the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at that temperature. It is unstable and the solute will usually begin to crystallize, especially if disturbed.
Answer:
Saturated, unsaturated and supersaturated refer to three different conditions of a solution. A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve at that temperature. ... An unsaturated solution contains less than the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at that temperature.
