Question

Match the types of solutions with their definitions.
$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Column A}& & \text{Column B}\\ \text{(1)}& \text{Supersaturated solution}& \text{(P)}& \text{Less solute than the maximum amount of solute dissolved at a given}\\ & & & \text{temperature}.\\ \left(2\right)& \text{Unsaturated Solution}& \text{(Q)}& \text{No dissolution}\\ \left(3\right)& \text{Saturated Solution}& \text{(R)}& \text{Maximum amount of solute is dissolved at a given temperature.}\\ \left(4\right)& \text{Suspension}& \text{(S)}& \text{More solute than the maximum amount of solute dissolved at a given}\\ & & & \text{temperature}.\end{array}$

• A. 1 - S, 2 - P, 3 - R, 4 - Q
• B. 1 - Q, 2 - S, 3 - R, 4 - P
• C. 1 - R, 2 - S, 3 - P, 4 - Q
• D. 1 - P, 2 - S, 3 - R, 4 - Q

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 - S, 2 - P, 3 - R, 4 - Q

A saturated solution is a solution in which the maximum amount of solute can be dissolved at a particular temperature.
A solution which contains more dissolved substance than a saturated solution does is called supersaturated solution.
A solution which contains less dissolved substance than a saturated solution does is called an unsaturated solution.
Suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which the solute patricles do not dissolve and they suspend at the bottom.
