• What does being “saturated” mean?

 Solubility

The maximum amount of solute that

can dissolve in a specific amount of
solvent usually 100 g.

g of solute
100 g water
 Supersaturated, saturated and
unsaturated
A supersaturated solution contains more
than the maximum amount of solute.
Undissolved solute remains.
A saturated solution contains the maximum
amount of solute that can dissolve.
An unsaturated solution does not contain all
the solute that could dissolve
 Learning Check S1

At 40°C, the solubility of KBr is 80 g/100 g

H2O. Indicate if the following solutions are
(1) saturated or (2) unsaturated (3)
supersaturated
A. ___65 g KBr in 100 g of water at 40°C
B. ___200 g KBr in 200 g of water at 40°C
C. ___40 KBr in 50 g of water at 40°C
 Solution S1
At 40°C, the solubility of KBr is 80 g/100 g H2O.
Indicate if the following solutions are
(1) saturated or (2) unsaturated (3) supersaturated.
A. 2 Less than 80 g/100 g H2O
B. 3 Same as 100 g KBr in 100 g of water
at 40°C, which is greater than its solubility
C. 1 Same as 80 g KBr in 100 g of water,
which is less than its solubility
 Temperature and Solubility of
Solids
Temperature Solubility (g/100 g H2O)
KCl(s) NaNO3(s)
0° 27.6 74
20°C 34.0 88
50°C 42.6 114
100°C 57.6 182
The solubility of most solids (decreases or
increases ) with an increase in the
temperature.
