Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When a solution is saturated:
A
No additional material will dissolve in it
B
You need to stir it more
C
Two materials have combined to create a clear liquid
D
Crystals form
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in a definite amount of solvent at a given temperature is called a saturated solution. It is understood that saturation of the solution has been achieved when any additional substance that is added results in a solid precipitate or is let off as a gas.

Detailed explanation-2: -Saturated: A saturated solution is defined as having the maximum amount of dissolved solute. Because it already has the maximum amount, this solution does not have the capacity to dissolve any more solute. If more solute is added, it will not dissolve or mix with the solution.

Detailed explanation-3: -A solution with the maximum possible amount of solute is saturated. If a solution contains less than the maximum amount of solute, it is unsaturated. When a solution is saturated and excess solute is present, the rate of dissolution is exactly equal to the rate of crystallization (Figure 13.2. 1b).
