Question

A solution in which more solute can not dissolve at a given temperature is known as:

• A. supersaturated solution
• B. heterogeneous solution
• C. saturated solution
• D. unsaturated solution

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

saturated solution

In a saturated solution, more solute cannot be dissolved at a given temperature.

This is because, the solute dissolves in a solvent because of space between particles of solvent but on continuous addition of solute, the space between the solvent particles gets fulfilled. Thus no more solute particle can dissolve in a solvent.
