Saturated and Unsaturated Solutions
Table salt (NaCl) readily dissolves in water. Suppose that you have a beaker of water to which you add some salt, stirring until it dissolves. So you add more and that dissolves. You keep adding more and more salt, eventually reaching a point that no more of the salt will dissolve no matter how long or how vigorously you stir it. Why? On the molecular level, we know that action of the water causes the individual ions to break apart from the salt crystal and enter the solution, where they remain hydrated by water molecules. What also happens is that some of the dissolved ions collide back again with the crystal and remain there. Recrystallization is the process of dissolved solute returning to the solid state. At some point the rate at which the solid salt is dissolving becomes equal to the rate at which the dissolved solute is recrystallizing. When that point is reached, the total amount of dissolved salt remains unchanged. Solution equilibrium is the physical state described by the opposing processes of dissolution and recrystallization occurring at the same rate.
While this shows the change of state back and forth between solid and aqueous solution, the preferred equation also shows the dissociation that occurs as an ionic solid dissolves.



When the solution equilibrium point is reached and no more solute will dissolve, the solution is said to be saturated. A saturated solution is a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved. At 20°C, the maximum amount of NaCl that will dissolve in 100. g of water is 36.0 g. If any more NaCl is added past that point, it will not dissolve because the solution is saturated. What if more water is added to the solution instead? Now more NaCl would be capable of dissolving in the additional solvent. An unsaturated solution is a solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute that is capable of being dissolved.

When 30.0 g of NaCl is added to 100 ml of water, it all dissolves, forming an unsaturated solution. When 40.0 g is added, 36.0 g dissolves and 4.0 g remains undissolved, forming a saturated solution.

How can you tell if a solution is saturated or unsaturated? If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated. If the added solute dissolves, then the original solution was unsaturated. A solution that has been allowed to reach equilibrium but which has extra undissolved solute at the bottom of the container must be saturated.

Thought Experiment: A monkey escapes from a zoo and climbs a tree. After failing to entice the monkey down, a zookeeper fires a
Andreyy89

Explanation:

When bullet is shot towards the monkey then let say the distance of monkey from the bullet is "d"

so we can find the time to reach the bullet to the monkey

t = \frac{d}{vcos\theta}

Now similarly we can find the vertical displacement of the bullet in the same time

\Delta y = vsin\theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

\Delta y = v sin\theta (\frac{d}{vcos\theta}) - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

so it is given as

\Delta y = d tan\theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

here if the monkey is initially at height H above the ground at given angle then we can say

H = dtan\theta

so we can say that

\Delta y = H - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

So if at the same time monkey will fall down then the height of monkey from ground after time "t" is given as

\Delta y = H - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

so here bullet will hit the monkey as both monkey and bullet are at same position.

Which of the following statements best summarizes the first paragraph of this passage?
Fed [463]
Read the paragraph multiple times and find the main ideas and supporting details. Find what it is mostly about and compare the information you have to the statements and select the one most like yours. This is the best I can do without seeing any of the choices and the paragraph. Hope this helps! :)
