What else can I help you with?
A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution does and that is able to dissolve additional solute?
An unsaturated solution contains less solute than a saturated solution and is able to dissolve additional solute until it reaches the point of saturation.
What is a solution What is a solute What is a solvent?
Solute is the substance dissolved in a solvent.Solvent is a liquid able to dissolve a solute.Solution is the mixture of solvent and solute.
How do you know if something is solute?
A solute is a substance that is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. You can identify a solute by observing if the substance is able to dissolve in a solvent to create a homogeneous mixture or solution.
What is the difference between saturation and supersaturation in a solution, and how do they affect the solubility of a substance?
Saturation occurs when a solution holds the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a given temperature. Supersaturation happens when a solution holds more solute than it should be able to dissolve at that temperature. Saturation increases solubility by allowing more solute to dissolve, while supersaturation can lead to the formation of crystals as the excess solute precipitates out of the solution.
How much does a saturated solution dissolves its solute?
A saturated solution won't dissolve any solute unless it is manipulated in some way, such as heating it, so that it will be able to accept more of a substance, and thereby become a supersaturated solution. However if it is cooled back down the solute will crystallize within the solution.
How do concentrated and dilute solutions differ from saturated and unsaturated ones?
Nothing more can be added to a saturated solution - the liquid is literally 'full up' with the solute being dissolved, so if you carry on adding the solute, it will not dissolve and the solution will not become any more concentrated. A concentrated solution has a very large amount of the solute in it (there is more solute than solvent), but it has not yet reached the point where no more solute can be dissolved. If you keep adding to it, the solute will dissolve.
What is an over saturated solutions?
An oversaturated solution is one in which the solvent contains more solute than it can normally dissolve at a given temperature. This typically occurs when the solution is heated, allowing it to dissolve more solute than it would be able to at a lower temperature. When the temperature decreases, the excess solute may begin to precipitate out of the solution.
What is the name of a solution that contains maximum amount of solute at a given temperature?
A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute at a given temperature is called a saturated solution. This means that the solution is holding as much solute as it can at that specific temperature, with no additional solute able to dissolve.
What is saturated solution and an unsaturated solution?
A saturated solution contains a liquid (solvent) and a solid (solute). In a solution that dissolves, the solute dissolves in the solvent. An example of this is table salt (NaCl) in Water (H20). When you stir some salt into water, it dissolves. However, when there is too much salt in proportion to water, there are leftovers at the bottom. This indicates that the solution is saturated. Put simply, It means that there is not enough solvent to dissolve the solute. This happens because of dipole forces of the solvent attracting to ends of the solute. In a salt water solution, there needs to be about 6 water molecules to every 1 salt molecule. When there is too much of the salt, the solid falls to the bottom (precipitate). An Unsaturated solution is simply one that has not passed this critical ratio of molecules.
What happens when a saturated solution is heated?
When you raise the temperature of a saturated solution; you can add more solute and make it a super saturated solution because the molecules of the solvent will be able to attract more molecules of solute.
What is meant by the solubility of a solute?
Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve completely in another substance. The substance that dissolves is called the solute. If the solute has a high solubility, then it easily dissolves in most substances to create a solution. If the solute has a low solubility, then it does not dissolve easily and rarely goes into solution with other substances.
What is the substance that makes something dissolve?
The substance that makes something dissolve is called a solvent. A solvent is able to break down the particles of another substance, called a solute, by surrounding and dispersing them in its solution.
