Solubility
Lower Sec Science · Secondary 1 · Hard · Solubility
A beaker contains 100 ml of water at 70 °C. The maximum mass of solid Y that can dissolve in this water is 80 g. If a student adds 50 g of Y and stirs until no more dissolves, how would you describe the solution?
- It is an unsaturated solution because less than 80 g has dissolved.
- It is a saturated solution because some solid was added.
- It is a suspension because solid Y cannot dissolve at 70 °C.
- It is a concentrated solution that must be saturated.
