A saturated solution
A solution that contains the maximum amount of dissolved solid that it can hold is called a saturated solution. This means that no more solid can dissolve in the solution without additional factors like temperature changes.
When the maximum amount of solid is dissolved in a solvent, the solution is termed a saturated solution. In this state, the solvent can no longer dissolve additional solute at a given temperature and pressure. Any excess solute will remain undissolved, indicating that the solution has reached its solubility limit.
Solute which is the solid being dissolved Solvent which is the liquid the solid is dissolving into Solution which is the solute and the solvent mixed together Soluble which means that something will dissolve Insoluble which means that something will not dissolve Solubility which is how much something will dissolve and Saturated which is when a solution has dissolved that maximum amount of solute
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.
The solubility of a solid refers to the maximum amount of that solid that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature. It is often expressed in units like grams per liter or moles per liter. This value is important in determining how much of a solid can be dissolved in a solution.
When the maximum amount of solid (solute) is dissolved in a solvent, the resulting solution is said to be saturated.

When the maximum amount of solid dissolves in a solute, the solution is said to be saturated. At this point, the concentration of the dissolved solid reaches its limit at a given temperature and pressure, meaning no more solid can dissolve without additional changes in conditions. If more solid is added, it will remain undissolved at the bottom of the container. The solubility of the solid can vary with temperature and other factors.
Saturated solution is the ideal type of solution. The other is unsaturated, which is less saturated than what the solvent (water, liquid etc.), and it can dilute. The last one is supersaturated which mean the solution contains more solute (solid materials).
The solution in which no more material will dissolve is called a saturated solution. In a saturated solution, the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved in the solvent at a given temperature and pressure. Any additional solute added will not dissolve and will remain as a solid.
The solute can re-form as a solid.
