Solution

The correct option is C Saturated solution
In a solution, the solute is uniformly dissolved in the solvent. But there is a limit to how much solute can be dissolved and it depends on the temperature.

At any given temperature, only a certain amount of solute can be dissolved. When that point is reached, the solution is said to be saturated and we call it a saturated solution.
