Question

A solution that contains a small amount of salt and a large amount of water is said to be a _______ solution. A. concentrated B. unsaturated C. dilute D. saturated

Answer 1

Salt is the solute and water is the solvent.

A saturated solution is one that contains all the solute that can be dissolved in the solvent under the given conditions of temperature and pressure. So, when salt is gradually added to water, the solution will be saturated when the water can’t dissolve any more salt (at that temperature and pressure).

So the correct answer is saturated

Answer 2

A solution that contains a small amount amount of salt and a large amount of water is said to be Saturated. Because when you keep adding salt it won't dissolve.
