Solution

Saturated solution Unsaturated solution
It is the type of solution in which no more solute can be added. It is the type of solution in which more solute can be added.
For example, In saturated solutions of salt in water, no more salt can be added. For example, In unsaturated solutions of salt in water, more salt can be added.
