It depends on the amount of salt and the amount of water. If there is only a little salt, it is probably unsaturated. That means more salt could be dissolved into the solution. If there is quite a bit of salt, it is more than likely saturated. If you add more salt and it just floats to the bottom, it is saturated. Unless it is supersaturated of course. For the solution to be supersaturated, you would have had to boil the water, add salt to the point where it stops dissolving into the boiling hot solution, then let the solution cool down. So, it can be any of the three.

Is salt mix in water a saturated solution?

When you first mix the salt into the solution the salt will dissolve into the water. As you keep on pouring more salt into the water eventually the salt will stop dissolving and once the salt stops dissolving the solution is then saturated.


What if your teacher gives you a solution of salt in water. How can you fi nd out if it is a saturated solution?

You can determine if the solution is saturated by adding a small amount of salt to the solution. If the salt dissolves, the solution is unsaturated. If the added salt does not dissolve and collects at the bottom of the container, the solution is saturated.


Which solution containing 2.4g salt per 5ml of water are saturated at room temperature?

This salt solution is saturated at room temperature.


How can you find out if a solution is a saturated solution?

The fastest way is to add more salt - if the additional salt falls out of solution and forms a precipitate on the bottom of the container, the solution is saturated.


Is saltwater solution saturated or unsaturated?

From your question it is impossible to tell. A salt-water solution can be unsaturated or saturated depending on how much salt was added.


Will a solution of saturated salt and water freeze?

No, a saturated salt solution will have a lower freezing point compared to pure water. The presence of salt interferes with the formation of ice crystals, making it harder for the solution to freeze.


What will be the solution name if you put more salt in saturated salt solution?

It will be saturated salt solution with salt crystals at the bottom of the container.


How much epsom salt is in the saturated solution?

The amount of Epsom salt in a saturated solution depends on factors such as temperature and pressure. At room temperature, approximately 115 grams of Epsom salt can dissolve in 100 mL of water to form a saturated solution.


What is the solution of table salt in water?

first, table salt is not a saturated solution, because you can't see through it. it needs to be liquid, and solutions become a saturated solution when you put as much as you can in the water. now, it's a solution and it is saturated.


If you have a saturated solution say of salt and water is it possible to add another substance ti it like water?

Yes, you can add water to a saturated salt solution without causing the salt to precipitate out. The additional water will dilute the solution, reducing the concentration of salt, but will not cause the salt to re-crystallize unless more salt is added.


How can you determine the amount of salt presented in a saturated solution?

Only by experiments. For example the solution is heated, water is evaporated and the salt weighed.


What happen to salt particles when they are placed in water?

They dissolve until the solution is saturated.
