Question

When 5 grams of KCl are dissolved in 50. grams of water at 25°C, the resulting mixture can be described as
(1) heterogeneous and unsaturated
(2) heterogeneous and supersaturated
(3) homogeneous and unsaturated
(4) homogeneous and supersaturated

Answer 1

It's a homogeneuous mixture for sure. The saturated part, I think u need more information.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option 3, that is, homogenous and unsaturated.

Explanation:

In the given question, the mentioned mixture is homogenous as the KCl or potassium chloride has got dissolved completely, thus, the mixture is identical throughout the course, that is, one will not find any particles of KCl in it as it has got dissolved.  

The mixture can also be considered unsaturated as the mixture can still dissolve more amount of KCl in it, and will get dissolve as no precipitate formation is going to take place.
