Answer:
This solutions is supersaturated
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of KBr = 100 grams
Mass of water = 100 grams
Temperature of water = 60.0 °C
Saturated Solution =A solution with solute that dissolves until it is unable to dissolve anymore.
Unsaturated Solution= A solution (with less solute than the saturated solution) that completely dissolves.
Supersaturated Solution = A solution (with more solute than the saturated solution) that contains more undissolved solute than the saturated solution because of its tendency to crystallize and precipitate
Step 2
A KBr solution is saturated when 85.5 grams of KBr, at a temperature of 60.0 °C, is dissolved in 100 mL (100 grams ) of water.
100 grams > 85.5 grams
This solutions is supersaturated
