Effect of heat would be the solvent will be dissolved fast and the temperature changes contribute to the change of the effect of the supersaturated solution.
Heating a solvent allows it to dissolve more solute.
Heat the solution
heat a solution to evaporate the water off
Under normal conditions, supersaturated solutions won't take more solute. Of course, you can heat, cool, agitate, etc., the solution to reach something called supersaturation, where solutions can be conned into taking more solute.
a solution which contain more solute than saturated solution
Contained inside re-usable hand warmers is a super-saturated solution of sodium acetate. When a metal disk inside is bent, it forms a nucleation site for crystals. The supersaturated solution forms a crystaline hydrate, and releases heat in the process. The solution can be reformed by heating the crystaline hydrate.

I would take 351 g of CdI2 and heat it in hot water, have a soluable solution at that temperature, then decrease the temperature to have a supersaturated solution
The supersaturated solution begin to drop small crystals when the additional sodium thiosulfate was added because the supersaturated solution got reverted back to a saturated solution. Every solution has it;s own level of saturation, at a certain temperature a limit of the solute can be disolved in it, if you heat the solution the limit changes and more of the solute can be added in the solution. This is a supersaturated solution.When you drop an extra crystal into a supersaturated solution, all the extra crystals that aren't suppose to be in it crystalize out of the solution.
make a fully saturated solution, then add more. after adding, greatly heat up the solution and stir it to dissolve more salt. when it cools down, you have a supersaturated solution. word of caution, if you put any kind of crystal structure in this solution, then the excess will crystalize back out.
Yes, the compound in the packs is a supersaturated solution of sodium acetate.
Probably with enough heat. Solutions can become supersaturated. "Supersaturated solutions are prepared or result when some condition of a saturated solution is changed, for example temperature, volume (as by evaporation), or pressure." -Wikipedia as a source
probably a supersaturated solution if you heat it to dissolve all of the salt
Instant heat packs contain a supersaturated solution of sodium acetate that heats up when the crystallization process is started by flexing a metal disc embedded in the liquid. Since the liquid is supersaturated (concentration of a solution beyond saturation point), flexing the notched ferrous metal disc makes the solution crystallize suddenly, thereby releasing the energy of the crystal lattice.
1. Heat the water. 2. Dissolve as much salt as possible while hot. 3. Cool the solution.
More heat or more pressure will allow more solute to dissolve. The is called a supersaturated solution.
Well if you heat the saturated solution all the solids should dissolve and it should stay a colourless solution with no solids even if it does cool down to the original temperature. At this point it is supersaturated.
