a solution is made by adding 20 g table salt to 100 ml water. the solubility of salt is 36 g/100 ml water. which term best describes this solution? dilute saturated supersaturated unsaturated done
Answer
Brief Explanations:
A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature. A supersaturated solution has more solute than the saturation point. An unsaturated solution can dissolve more solute. Here, 20 g of salt is added to 100 mL of water and the solubility is 36 g/100 mL water, so more salt can dissolve. A dilute solution just refers to a solution with a relatively low - solute concentration, but the key here is the comparison to the saturation point.
Answer:
unsaturated
