A solution that contains all the solute it can hold at a given temperature?

It is called a saturated solution. This is created by adding in solute until no more solute dissolves. Then the excess solute is filtered. This works much better for a saturated solution at room temperature, as when the solution hits the filter paper, some will come out because it is colder.


What is saturated solution and an unsaturated solution?

A saturated solution is when the dilute (liquid) can no longer suspend the solute (dissolved solid). The solute will fall out of suspension. This can be achieved simply by adding salt to water while stirring. The salt (solute) will dissolve (be suspended) in the water (dilute) until saturation is reached. At that point, the salt will no longer dissolve and will be visible at the bottom (falling out of suspension).


What is the evidence that a solution is saturated?

The presence of undissolved solute at the bottom of a container, the absence of visible changes in the solution after more solute is added, and reaching a point where the solute starts to precipitate out of the solution are all evidence that a solution is saturated.


Is a solution evenly or unevenly distributed?

A solution is evenly distributed when the solute is uniformly mixed with the solvent throughout the entire mixture. This results in a homogeneous solution where the concentration of the solute is the same in all parts of the solution. Uneven distribution would mean that the solute is not uniformly mixed, resulting in a heterogeneous solution.


If crystal solute was dropped into a solution and it was dissolved The original solution was?

The original solution was saturated with the crystal solute, meaning it was holding the maximum amount of solute that could be dissolved at that temperature. When the crystal solute was dropped in and dissolved, the solution became supersaturated briefly before it reached a new equilibrium.

When all the sloute a solution can hold is dissolved?

When all the solute a solution can hold is dissolved, it is called a saturated solution. It contains the highest concentration possible for a solution.


What is the relationship between solute solvent solution saturated unsaturated and supersaturated?

A solute dissolves in a solvent to form a solution; all the time that more of the solute can be dissolved it is unsaturated, but once the solution can hold no more of the solute it has become saturated.

When all the solute that the solution can hold is dissolved?

Then the solution is said to be saturated.


Is saturated a soulution that contains all solute and can be dissolved with out changing temperature?

A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved at a given temperature. If a solution is saturated, adding more solute will not dissolve into the solution without changing the temperature.


Is a aqueous solution a solution that contains all the solute that it can hold?

the solution itself, yes. it must contain water to be called an aqueous solution. the term aqueous designates water as the solvent/diluent.


What is the difference in saturated and supersaturated?

no


What does it mean for a solution to be super saturated?

Under some circumstances it is possible to dissolve more of a solute into a solution than the nominal solubility of that solute would allow. A saturated solution is one that contains all the solute that will normally dissolve, and a supersaturated solution contains even more of that solute. If the solution is disturbed in some way (the appearance of a nucleating particle, stirring, etc.) then the excess solute will precipitate from the solution, or in the case of a gas, will bubble out of the solution.

What does it mean a mixture has become saturated?

When a mixture is saturated, it means that it has reached its maximum capacity to dissolve a solute at a particular temperature. Any additional solute added will not be able to dissolve further in the mixture.


What is the solution that has dissolved all the solute in it?

This is not a saturated solution.


What is the difference between solution and concentrared solution?

A solution is a solute dissolved in a solvent. A concentrated solution is all the solute that be dissolved in a solvent at normal temperature. A super-concentrated solution is all the solute that can be dissolved in a solution after mixing in the solute during high temperature / pressure. The concentration after cooling to normal temperature / pressure is greater than a regular concentrated solution.
