Explain saturated and unsaturated solution?
Answers
Answer:
When the solution equilibrium point is reached and no more solute will dissolve, the solution is said to be saturated. A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved. At 20°C, the maximum amount of NaCl that will dissolve in 100. g of water is 36.0 g. If any more NaCl is added past that point, it will not dissolve because the solution is saturated. What if more water is added to the solution instead? Now more NaCl would be capable of dissolving in the additional solvent. An unsaturated solution is a solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved. The figure below illustrates the above process and shows the distinction between unsaturated and saturated.

Explanation:
Saturated :A solution that cannot dissolve any more quantity of solute in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature..
Unsaturated: A solution that is still capable of dissolving a given amount of solute in a given amount of solvent at a given temperature.
