Question

what is the definition of supersaturated solution

Answer 1

Supersaturation is a state of 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.

Answer 2

Answer:

A solution containing a solute more than that required to form a saturated solution at equilibrium is called a supersaturated solution. When a uny crystal of a solute is added to Supersaturated solution, the excess solute separatcs out and forms saturated solution. Units
