What is saturated equilibrium?
Saturated equilibrium refers to a state in which a solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a given temperature and pressure, resulting in no net change in the concentration of solute in the solution. At this point, the rate of solute dissolving into the solution equals the rate of solute precipitating out of the solution. This concept is commonly observed in solutions of salts and other solutes, where the solubility limit defines the saturated state. In essence, the system is balanced, with dynamic processes occurring but no overall change.
What is consturated solution?
A saturated solution is a solution that has reached the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in it at a given temperature. As the temperature changes, the maximum solubility can also change. When a solution has a concentration higher than the maximum solubility, it is said to be supersaturated.
What could you do to change an unsaturated solution to a saturated solution?
To change an unsaturated solution to a saturated solution, you would need to add more solute to the solution until no more solute can dissolve and starts to accumulate at the bottom. This process is called saturation.
How can you describe the state of equilibrium in a saturated solution that contains undissolve solute?
In a saturated solution at equilibrium, the rate of dissolution of the solute is equal to the rate of crystallization, resulting in no net change in the concentration of solute in the solution. The presence of undissolved solute indicates that the solution has reached its maximum capacity to dissolve additional solute at a given temperature and pressure. This dynamic balance ensures that while some solute particles are continuously entering the solution, an equal number are leaving to form solid crystals. Thus, the concentration of solute remains constant despite the presence of undissolved material.
Dissolving solutes into a solution will?
increase the concentration of the solution and change its physical and chemical properties.
When you add so much solute that no more dissolves what do you have?
A saturated solution is made when you have added so much solute that no more dissolves. The amount of solute needed to make a saturated solution will change with the temperature of the solution.
An unstable solution containg more than the maximum amount of didolved solute is a saturated solution?
An unstable solution containing more than the maximum amount of dissolved solute is referred to as a supersaturated solution, not a saturated solution. A saturated solution has dissolved the maximum amount of solute that can be held at a given temperature and pressure, while a supersaturated solution temporarily holds more solute than is normally possible. This condition is unstable, and the excess solute can precipitate out if disturbed or if conditions change.
Is a concentrated solution always a saturated solution?
No, a concentrated solution need not be saturated always.Concentrated simply implies the presence of a particular solute in a solution in high percentile.Saturation implies that the addition of even a very small amount of a solute will result in a change of phase.Concentrated solution is a solution that contains a large amount of solute relative to the amount that could dissolve.
What is saturated equilibrium?
Saturated equilibrium refers to a state in which a solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a given temperature and pressure, resulting in no net change in the concentration of solute in the solution.

How does concentration change after every spoon full of salt is added after the solution is saturated?
The concentration of the salt solution does NOT change- it is saturated.
How can a saturated solution be made to absorb more solid solute?
By incerasing the temperature of the solution
What is saturated?
Saturation can mean that something is something is soaked thoroughly with a liquid such as water. In scientific use, saturation is the amount of solute in a solution as a percentage of the maximum at that temperature and pressure. "Supersaturation" refers to situations where the solution is more concentrated than the normal maximum, due to temperature or pressure changes.
What is consturated solution?
A saturated solution is a solution that has reached the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in it at a given temperature. As the temperature changes, the maximum solubility can also change. When a solution has a concentration higher than the maximum solubility, it is said to be supersaturated.
Explain how air becomes saturated?
Air can mix with other gasses forming a solution just like water forms a solution with salt or sugar. With a liquid solution there is a limit to how much the water can absorb, and the maximum amount it can absorb depends on the temperature of the water. Solutions in air work the same way. As water evaporates, the water molecules can form a solution and be dissolved in air. The maximum amount of water molecules dissolved in air depends on temperature (and air pressure). When the maximum amount is reached, the air becomes saturated with water and a change in temperature or pressure or more water entering the air can cause the water to leave the solution. It can result in fog or clouds forming which can result in rain, snow, etc.
What word describes a solution that cannot dissolve any more solid?
Saturated. But you can change the conditions and supersaturate many solutions.
If a solution remains unsaturated mineral crystals may precipitate?
Yes, that's correct. When a solution is unsaturated, it means that it can dissolve more solute. If conditions change, such as temperature or pressure, causing the solution to become saturated, the excess solute may precipitate out of solution and form mineral crystals.
What could you do to change an unsaturated solution to a saturated solution?
To change an unsaturated solution to a saturated solution, you would need to add more solute to the solution until no more solute can dissolve and starts to accumulate at the bottom. This process is called saturation.
