A SATURATED solution is one in which:
ALess solute is dissolved than the maximum capacity
BMore solute is dissolved than the maximum capacity (unstable)
CThe temperature is much higher than room temperature
DThe maximum possible solute is dissolved at that temperature
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. The maximum possible solute is dissolved at that temperature
A saturated solution holds the MAXIMUM solute that can dissolve at the given temperature.
Unsaturated holds less; supersaturated (unstable) holds more.
Solubility usually rises with temperature for solids.
