No. A saturated solution is still in equilibrium. If you bring it into contact with more of the solute, the concentration will remain the same. Solute will precipitate out at the same rate that more solute dissolves into the solution. An unstable equilibrium would be a supersaturated solution. In a supersaturated solution, more of the solute is in solution that would be equilibrium with the solid solute (or gas if you are dissolving gas for example). An example that many people are familiar with is dissolving a lot of sugar into hot water. As it cools down, the solution becomes supersaturated. As long as there is nothing for the sugar to nucleate on , the sugar can remain in solution indefinitely. If you hang a string in the solution, the sugar will start crystalizing on the string, forming "rock candy."
Molarity = moles of solute/Liters of solution Molarity = 5 moles solute/4.5 Liters of solution = 1 M solution ==========
The solute would be iodine, and the solvent would be tincture
The solvent in a solution is dissolving the solute. A solution is groups of molecules that are mixed in a completely even distribution. Basically a solute dissolved in a solvent. An example of a solvent would be water and a solute could be sugar. The sugar would dissolve in the water which would be a solution.
The solute can re-form as a solid.
All that would happen is the solute would not absorb into the solution and it would spill off eventually.

It would be the solute.
In a basic saltwater solution, the water molecules would be the solvent and the salt molecules would be the solute.
This would be a dilute solution.

From areas of higher concentration (of water) to lower concentration (of water) - ie it fills the space. That would mean that it would flow from a solution whose concentration of solute is higher to one where the solute concentration is lower.
Solute in chemistry means the substance that dissolves in a solution.
An unsaturated solution is one that contains less solute than the maximum amount it can dissolve at a given temperature. This type of solution has the capacity to dissolve more solute.
The solution which is saturated cannot dissolve more solute in it.So when the solutes stops dissolving in the solution the solution is saturated.You can drop a crystal of solute in the solution and the crystal do not dissolve then the solution is saturated.
you can change the solute
Solute, because it is the minor component in the solution and it is what dissolves in the solvent. For example: Salt Water - The salt is the solute that dissoles in the solvent, which is water.
