How a saturated solution can become supersaturated?
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.
A Saturated Solution can no longer hold any more solute in solution.
No, if it holds MORE than it should it is supersaturated.The term supersaturation refers to a solution that contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances.Saturation is the point at which a solution of a substance can dissolve no more of that substance (under normal circumstances) and additional amounts of it will appear as a precipitate.
In a supersaturated solution, the solute concentration exceeds the saturation point at that temperature. This is achieved by dissolving the solute in a hot solution and then slowly cooling it down without allowing the excess solute to precipitate out. A saturated solution has the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature.
The solution is said to be saturated when it contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in the solvent at a given temperature. If there is so much solute that no more will dissolve, the solution is supersaturated. This occurs when additional solute is added beyond the saturation point, leading to a temporary unstable state before the excess solute eventually precipitates out.
Adding more solute the solution become supersaturated.
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.
At a given temperature a solution is saturated when the the solute become insoluble.
Probably with enough heat. Solutions can become supersaturated. "Supersaturated solutions are prepared or result when some condition of a saturated solution is changed, for example temperature, volume (as by evaporation), or pressure." -Wikipedia as a source
This is a saturated solution.
A Saturated Solution can no longer hold any more solute in solution.
when a solvent can hold no more solute it is called saturated

No, evaporation will most likely make the solution supersaturated
A supersaturated solution can be obtained when a saturated solution which is in contact with its solid, is slightly heated in order to increase the solubility product, followed by quick cooling.
