The solute will gradually form a precipitate.
Copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled down. As the solution cools, the solubility of copper sulphate decreases, causing the excess copper sulphate to come out of the solution and form crystals.
If a saturated solution of copper chloride is cooled, the solubility of the compound will decrease, causing excess copper chloride to precipitate out of the solution in the form of solid crystals. This process is known as crystallization.
When a cooled saturated potassium nitrate solution is added to water, the concentration of the potassium nitrate decreases making it less likely that he substance will precipitate out of solution.
The evidence that the equilibrium shifted when a saturated potassium nitrate solution was cooled is the precipitation of potassium nitrate crystals. Cooling the solution causes a decrease in solubility, leading to excess solute (potassium nitrate) to precipitate out of the solution. This indicates that the equilibrium has shifted towards the solid phase as a result of the change in temperature.
When a crystal of potassium nitrate is added to the saturated solution as it is cooled, it will act as a seed crystal for the excess solute to come out of solution and crystallize. If no crystal were present, the solution may remain supersaturated, meaning it contains more solute than it can naturally hold, leading to potential spontaneous crystallization or precipitation with any disturbance.
Crystallisation
If a hot saturated solution is cooled quickly, the solubility of the solute decreases with temperature, causing excess solute to precipitate out of solution. This rapid cooling can result in the formation of larger crystals or a higher amount of crystals in the solution.
Copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled down. As the solution cools, the solubility of copper sulphate decreases, causing the excess copper sulphate to come out of the solution and form crystals.
Either it becomes "supersaturated" OR some material separates out (precipitates).

No, the solution is still saturated when crystals begin to appear. The presence of crystals does not necessarily indicate that the solution is unsaturated; it just means that some of the solute has started to come out of solution due to the decrease in temperature.
As the saturated solution is cooled slowly, the solubility of the solute decreases due to the decrease in temperature. This causes the excess solute to start crystallizing out of the solution in the form of solid crystals. The crystals will continue to grow as more solute particles come out of solution until equilibrium is reached.

A solution that has the maximum amount of solute dissolved at that temperature is known as a saturated solution.However it is possible to prepare a super saturated solution by heating the solution slightly, dissolving the maximum amount of solute and then carefully cooling the solution. Generally the super saturated solution is unstable and the excess solute will precipitate out if given the energy to do so.A common super saturated solution is a sugar solution. Sugar is added to water and the solution is heated and then carefully cooled. The solution can form a glass like solid called "toffee" rather than crystals of sugar.
A saturated solution.
When there is no more solute can be dissolved in a solution, a saturated solution is obtained. When a hot saturation solution is cooled down the solute will come out in solid form as a crystal. Small crystals will be found in fast cooling. If we hang a small crystal in a h ot saturated solution it will grow bigger when it cools slowly.
