Question

A sugar solution contains 20 g sugar in 100 ml of water but when 20 g more sugar was added to it, it dissolves in the water. The previous solution will be known as :
I) saturated solution
II) unsaturated solution
III) dilute solution

• A. I, II
• B. II, III
• C. I, III
• D. I, II, III

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

II, III

The amount of solute contained in a solution is less than the saturation level, it is called an unsaturated solution. It can dissolve more solutes.

A solution in which some more solute could be dissolved without changing its temperature is called unsaturated solution.

A concentrated solution is one that has a relatively large amount of dissolved solute. A dilute solution is one that has a relatively small amount of dissolved solute.

Option B is correct.
