Answer:
Supersaturation is a solution that contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances. It can also refer to a vapor of a compound that has a higher (partial) pressure than the vapor pressure of that compound.

A supersaturated solution contains more solute at a given temperature than is needed to form a saturated solution. Increased temperature usually increases the solubility of solids in liquids.
For example, the solubility of glucose at 25 °C is 91 g/100 mL of water.
