If no more solute can dissolve in a solution at a fixed temperature, what type of solution is it?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Saturated solution
A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a specified amount of solvent at a stated temperature. If extra solute is added under the same conditions, it remains undissolved or establishes equilibrium. An unsaturated solution can still dissolve more; dilute describes concentration, not the saturation limit.
