A Saturated Solution can no longer hold any more solute in solution.
A solution that is unable to dissolve any more solute particles is said to be saturated. This means the solution has reached its maximum capacity to hold the solute at a given temperature. Any additional solute added will not dissolve and will remain as a solid at the bottom of the container.
A saturated solution is at equilibrium, meaning the rate of dissolving solute is equal to the rate of precipitating solute. As a result, no more solute can dissolve in the solution at that specific temperature and pressure. This makes the concentration of the solute in the saturated solution constant.
A solution that does not allow any more solute to dissolve (at room temperature) is called a SATURATED SOLUTION. But a saturated solution can be made to dissolve more solute by heating it. Then it is called a super saturated solution.The solvent becomes saturated and the no more solute will disolve
A saturated solution
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.
Then the solution is said to be saturated.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances, where one substance (solute) is dissolved in another substance (solvent). When a liquid is fully saturated with dissolved solid, it means that no more solute can dissolve in the solution at that temperature, and the solution is said to be saturated.

when the solute can no longer dissolve in a solution then the solution can be said as saturated
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.
When a solution has reached a point where it can no longer dissolve any additional solute, it is said to be saturated. At this point, any excess solute added will not dissolve and will instead settle at the bottom of the solution.
A solution in which no more solute will dissolve is said to be saturated. It is important to realise that it is only saturated at that particular temperature. If you heat it up, usually more solute will dissolve.
Almost every chemical that dissolves (solute) in a solution eventually reaches a proportion of solute to solvent where no more material will dissolve. The extra just falls to the bottom. This is saturated solution. However if you "play tricks" on the saturated solution. For example cooling it gently so the solution is holding more solute at the lower temperature than it should. The solution is said to be supersaturated. This is usually a unstable condition. A tap on the container or the introduction of a dust mote or particle of the solute, will result in the precipitation of the excess solute from the solution.
The addition of solute to a solvent concentrates the overall solution. A nice example is the laundry detergent. Some (less) concentrated detergents are less viscous, while highly concentrated detergents are more viscous (greater density). Also, adding more solute to a solvent can lower the freezing point.
