What occurs when oil is introduced to water?
What occurs when oil is introduced to water?
- The oil is absorbed by the water.
- The oil forms a layer on top of the water. (correct)
- The oil sinks to the bottom.
- The oil mixes completely with the water.
What is the key characteristic of a saturated solution?
What is the key characteristic of a saturated solution?
- It has a low solvent concentration.
- It can dissolve more solute.
- It cannot dissolve any additional solute. (correct)
- It is at a point of equilibrium.
What defines an unsaturated solution?
What defines an unsaturated solution?
- It contains more solute than the solvent can dissolve.
- It has the maximum amount of solvent possible.
- It has reached its maximum capacity for dissolved solute.
- It contains less solute than can be dissolved by the solvent. (correct)

Study Notes
Oil and Water
- Oil floats on top of water.
- Oil and water are immiscible (do not mix).
Saturated Solutions
- A saturated solution occurs when a solvent can no longer dissolve any more solute.
Unsaturated Solutions
- An unsaturated solution contains less solute than can be dissolved.
