Answer: Saturated

A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is soluble at a given temperature is said to be saturated.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Saturated solution is one that contains as much (i.e maximum) solute as it can dissolve at that temperature in the presence of undissolved solute particles.

For instance: if a given volume of water can only dissolve a certain amount of salt in it at room temperature, then, more salt added will not dissolve.

Thus, making the solution saturated.
