Answer
Add a few drops of solute in the solution and try to stir by keeping the temperature constant.
- If more solute does not dissolve in the given solution, then it will be a saturated solution.
- If the solute gets dissolved, then it is an unsaturated solution.
- If on slightly disturbing the solution by shaking, stirring, scratching the wall of container or adding a solute crystal to the solution, the additional amount of the solute precipitates out, then the solution is a supersaturated solution.
