A saturated solution is where there is more solute in a solution than a solvent. A unsaturated solution is where there is more solvent than solute in a solution. And a super saturated solution is when let's say you boil water and put a bunch of sugar crystals in it,it will hold more solute than when it's cooled. So youhave a bunch of crystals in boiled water, then you cool the water down and sometimes the crystals will stay in the solution. Then it becomes supersaturated. Sorry if I'm wrong. :3

∙ 8y agoThese terms have to do with the amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given solvent. An unsaturated solution has less than the maximum amount of solute dissolved. A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute than can normally be dissolved in that solvent. A supersaturated solution is obtained usually by heating the solution so that more than the maximum amount of solute can be dissolved. When the temperature returns to normal, and if the solute does not precipitate out, a supersaturated solution is obtained.

Unsaturated solution: the solute has a concentration lower than the saturation concentration at a given temperature.
Supersaturated solution: the amount of the solute in the liquid is over the limit of solubility at a given temperature.

A solution suddenly forms a precipitate when agitated It is supersaturated saturated unsaturated or concentrated?
Supersaturated
What do we call a solution that has as many ions as it can hold?
This is a saturated solution.
A solution that contains more than it would normallyhold at that temperature is said to be what?
Supersaturated.
When solution can't hold more solute?
when a solvent can hold no more solute it is called saturated
What is a solution with a concentration above the equilibrium solubility called?
a supersaturated solution
How can a saturated solution become supersaturated?
How a saturated solution can become supersaturated?
How can you help a saturated solution become a supersaturated solution?
Adding more solute the solution become supersaturated.
A solution suddenly forms a precipitate when agitated It is supersaturated saturated unsaturated or concentrated?
Supersaturated
What do we call a solution that has as many ions as it can hold?
This is a saturated solution.
A solution that contains more than it would normallyhold at that temperature is said to be what?
Supersaturated.
What is the type of solution with so much solute that no more will dissolve?
When a solute is added to a solvent until no more dissolves, the solution is said to be saturated. In some cases a solution can be made to be supersaturated by temporarily increasing the solubility of the solvent, such as through an increase in temperature.
When solution can't hold more solute?
when a solvent can hold no more solute it is called saturated
What is a solution with a concentration above the equilibrium solubility called?
a supersaturated solution
When solubility increases what can YOU say about the concentration of a saturated solution?
SUPERSATURATED
