Want this question answered?
I suppose that this temperature is approx. 5 oC.
No, the solution remains saturated. It is just that as the temperatures decreases so does the carrying capacity of the solvent.
When cooling, a precipitate will be formed as the solublity product decreases.
When there is no more solute can be dissolved in a solution, a saturated solution is obtained. When a hot saturation solution is cooled down the solute will come out in solid form as a crystal. Small crystals will be found in fast cooling. If we hang a small crystal in a h ot saturated solution it will grow bigger when it cools slowly.

A solution that has the maximum amount of solute dissolved at that temperature is known as a saturated solution.However it is possible to prepare a super saturated solution by heating the solution slightly, dissolving the maximum amount of solute and then carefully cooling the solution. Generally the super saturated solution is unstable and the excess solute will precipitate out if given the energy to do so.A common super saturated solution is a sugar solution. Sugar is added to water and the solution is heated and then carefully cooled. The solution can form a glass like solid called "toffee" rather than crystals of sugar.
When a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water, the concentration of the potassium nitrate decreases making it less likely that he substance will precipitate out of solution.
The solution forms bigger crystals that have pointed ends.
Precipitation of a solid.
The solution was then cooled to 25 °C when solid potassium nitrate separated out to leave a saturated solution. Using the information provided in this question, what is the minimum mass of water that must now be added to the mixture of the solution and the solid in order to make this solid potassium nitrate redissolve at 25 °C?
A cooled saturated solution of copper chloride will precipitate crystals of copper chloride.
I suppose that this temperature is approx. 5 oC.
Yes, since the solubility of a solid solute in liquid solvent is decreased when the temperature is reduced, then the amount of of solute beyond the solubility limit must crystallize out of solution
Crystallisation
The solute will gradually form a precipitate.
There Is No Way A Saturated Solution Can Be Cooled Quickly. But If It Did The Solution Would Desaturate.
No, the solution remains saturated. It is just that as the temperatures decreases so does the carrying capacity of the solvent.
Either it becomes "supersaturated" OR some material separates out (precipitates).
