Solution

The correct option is C When too much of a substance is added to solution.
When too much of a substance is added to solution, a precipitate forms.
Also, when ionic product exceeds solubility product, the precipitation occurs.
In a supersaturated solution, the excess ions recombine to form solid which results in precipitation.
