1) Saturated solution. A saturated solution contains the maximum amount of solute dissolved. The solubility of the compound is 2.5 g in 100 mL.
2) Find the concentration (percentage mass by volume) of the saturated solution
The concentration of the saturated solution is 2.5 %.
3) Find the concentration (percentage mass by volume) of the sample
The concentration of the sample (1.12g in 50. mL) is 2.24%. The concentration of the sample is lower than the saturated concentration. So, the solution is unsaturated.
