You can keep adding sugar, if it dissolves it is still unsaturated and if it piles up at the bottom of the glass it is saturated.
you can also freeze the solution or cause it to precipitate
No, sugar is not a solution. Sugar water is a solution of sugar and water, but sugar itself is not.
the temperature and the solubility of sugar at that temperature
SaturatedYou may take it as for example we say Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons so the term saturated means that it is no more soluble = Alkanes are insoluble hydrocarbons
Any chemical species dissolved in water has a (water) formula at the endfor example, salt in water is NaCl(water)The scientific name for solid sugar is C12H22O11The formula for water is H2OSo the formula for sugar water is...
Sugar water is denser than plain water. A saturated solution -- it will not absorb one more gram of sugar -- is about 1.83 grams per milliter. Whole milk's density is 1.034 grams per milliliter. Thus a full jug of milk (assuming a thin plastic jug, not a heavy glass container, and no air in the jug) would float on sugar water. How far it would sink depends on the concentration of the sugar solution.
I made a saturated solution by adding sugar to water until no more sugar could dissolve.
By heating the saturated sugar solution, and then adding more sugar.
It can be. A saturated solution is one that is at the limit of how much of a solute it can hold. So whether a solution of sugar in water is saturated depends on the temperature and how much sugar is dissolved in a given amount of water.
A saturated solution is one in which the no more solute can be dissolved in the solution and then becomes precipitate. Imagine a glass of water and some sugar. You dissolve the sugar in the water and add more sugar until not one grain more will dissolve--the solution is now "saturated" with sugar.
Assuming that all of the sugar that could be dissolved, is dissolved at that temperature and pressure, it would be a super saturated solution.
To solve more sugar in a saturated solution of sugar water, you can heat the solution to increase the solubility of sugar. Stirring the solution can also help to dissolve more sugar. Alternatively, you can increase the pressure on the solution, as pressure affects the solubility of solids in liquids.
Whether a sugar-water mixture is saturated or unsaturated depends on the amount of sugar that has been dissolved in the water. If no more sugar can be dissolved in the water at a given temperature, the solution is saturated; if more sugar can be dissolved, it is unsaturated.
Supersatured.
Super saturated sugar and water has a sugar- water solution and a suspension of sugar particles
A saturated solution.
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.
all you have to do is add sugar into boiling water. the sugar will dissolve and make saturated sugar!!
