Solution with maximum concentration of solute at given temperature is called________________?

Correct answer: C. saturated solution

  • A. Super saturated solution
  • B. unsaturated solution
  • C. saturated solution
  • D. dilute solution

Explanation

A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve at a specified temperature, so adding more solute will not produce further dissolution under those conditions. Students may choose supersaturated solution, but that contains more dissolved solute than the equilibrium limit and is unstable.

About Properties of Liquids

Liquid behavior depends on intermolecular forces, which produce surface tension, viscosity, capillary action and a definite volume without a fixed shape. The topic also covers vapor pressure, evaporation, boiling point and the effect of temperature and external pressure, while distinguishing evaporation at the surface from boiling throughout the liquid.
