Distinguish between the saturated and unsaturated solution using the data given below: a) 16 g NaCl in 100 g water. b) 36 g NaCl in 100 g water. (Note - Solubility of NaCl is 36 g)

Solution
The solubility of NaCl in water is 36g. In case a) less amount of the NaCl is added than 36g hence the solution is unsaturated whereas the solution b) is completely saturated as the sufficient amount of NaCl is dissolved.
