Activity #1
Identify the following sentences.
It is the ability to dissolve.
Solubility
A solution that contains the maximum
amount of solute dissolved by a given
amount of solvent.
Saturated Solution
A solution that contains less solute than the
maximum amount it can dissolved at a given
temperature.
Unsaturated Solution
A solution that contains more solute than the
maximum amount it can dissolved at a given
temperature.
Supersaturated
Solution
This type of solution can no longer dissolve
the solute.
Saturated Solution
Seatwork #_
TRUE or FALSE. Write TRUE if
the statement is correct and FALSE

TRUE
__________1. Unsaturated solution contains less
solute than solvent.
TRUE
__________2. Saturated solution contains an equal
amount of solute and solvent.
TRUE
