Explain dynamic equilibrium with respect to solution formation. what is a saturated solution? an unsaturated solution? a supersaturated solution?

Initially when we dissolve a solute , rate of dissolution is far exceeding the rate of deposition. But as the concentration of solution increases , the rate of deposition also increases and a situation comes when rate of dissolution becomes equal to rate of deposition that situation is called dynamic equilibrium.

Saturated solution:

It is the solution in which dissolved solute is in dynamic equilibrium with undissolved solute, if we dissolve more solute into it it will not dissolve.

Unsaturated solution:

This solution contains less amount of solute than the equilibrium amount of it. If we dissolve more solute into it , it will dissolve.

Supersaturated solution:

This solution contains more amount of solute than its equilibrium concentration. These solution are unstable.

Alright, I'll answer this question

what is a saturated solution?

A saturated solution contains the amount of solute for a given amount of solvent at a constant temperature. For example, no more than 36.2 g of sodium chloride will dissolve in 100 g of water. In a saturated solution, a dynamic equilibrium exists between the solid and its dissolved ions. In this equilibrium, as many ions are going out of the solution as are going in per unit time.

Hope this helps

answer: the primary difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that b hypothesis is falsifiable, but a theory has been proven to be correct. theory is an explanation of something that is happening but hypothesis is a guess of something that can happen
