Solution Composition: An Introduction
•
The solubility of a solute is limited.
 Saturated solution – contains as much
solute as will dissolve at that
temperature.
 Unsaturated solution – has not
reached the limit of solute that will
dissolve.

Solution Composition: An Introduction
•
Supersaturated solution – occurs when a
solution is saturated at an elevated
temperature and then allowed to cool but
all of the solid remains dissolved.
 Contains more dissolved solid than a
saturated solution at that temperature.
 Unstable – adding a crystal causes
precipitation.
