If a compound is saturated, it means that there are no Carbon-Carbon double or triple bonds. If it is unsaturated, it means that there are Carbon-Carbon double or triple bonds present. The degree of unsaturation can be calculated from the number of hydrogen atoms (0r pi-bonds), since the number of hydrogen atoms decreases as unsaturation increases.
The solvent can hold more solute when it is heated. Because on heating the solubility of a solvent increases.
A unsaturated solution is a solution with the concentration of solute under the maximal solubility at a given temperature.
The types of solutions based on solubility are saturated, unsaturated, and supersaturated. A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature. An unsaturated solution can dissolve more solute, and a supersaturated solution contains more solute than it normally would at a particular temperature.
The solubility curve typically shows the relationship between temperature and the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent to form a saturated solution. It helps to determine at what temperature a solution will become saturated or remain unsaturated.
A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature and pressure, resulting in some undissolved solute present. In contrast, an unsaturated solution contains less solute than the maximum capacity, allowing more solute to dissolve. The solubility of the solute and the temperature can influence whether a solution is saturated or unsaturated.

Solubility is the aptitude of a chemical substance to be soluble (to form a homogeneous solution) in a given solvent. An unsaturated solution is a solution which can dissolve further the solute, at a given temperature and pressure.

A solution of 40 g of sodium sulfate at 40 degrees Celsius can be considered unsaturated if it is below the solubility limit for that temperature. For sodium sulfate, the solubility in water at this temperature is approximately 19 g per 100 mL. Therefore, if the solution is less concentrated than this limit, it remains unsaturated. If the amount exceeds this solubility, it would be classified as saturated.
On heating a saturated solution it becomes unsaturated because heating causes kinetic energy to increase the distance between the molecules of liquid. Thus the solute takes free space present in the solvent. That is why saturates solution becomes unsaturated upon heating.
The solubility curve typically shows the relationship between temperature and the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent to form a saturated solution. It helps to determine at what temperature a solution will become saturated or remain unsaturated.
Capable of absorbing or dissolving to a greater degree; as, an unsaturated solution., Capable of taking up, or of uniting with, certain other elements or compounds, without the elimination of any side product; thus, aldehyde, ethylene, and ammonia are unsaturated.
A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature and pressure, resulting in some undissolved solute present. In contrast, an unsaturated solution contains less solute than the maximum capacity, allowing more solute to dissolve. The solubility of the solute and the temperature can influence whether a solution is saturated or unsaturated.
Solubility
A saturated solution occurs when the amount of solute dissolved at a given temperature is exactly on the solubility line of the graph. If the amount of solute is below this line, the solution is unsaturated, meaning it can still dissolve more solute. Conversely, if the solute amount is above the line, the solution is supersaturated. Therefore, only points on the line represent saturation.
To determine if a solution is saturated or unsaturated, we need to compare the actual solubility of the solute at the given temperature to the amount of solute dissolved in the solution. At 40 degrees Celsius, the solubility of KNO3 in water is approximately 80 g/100 g water. Since you have 110 g of KNO3 in 100 g of water, the solution is supersaturated because it contains more solute than it can normally hold at that temperature.
