Under what conditions can a supersaturated solution be formed?
A- cool the solution back down to room temperature very carefully
B- cool the solution back down to room temperature haphazardly
C- leave the solution undisturbed as it is cooling
D- heat a solvent above room temperature
E- cool a solvent below room temperature

Respuesta :

Answer:

E. Cool a solvent below room temperature

Explanation:

When a solution that has had more solute dissolved at a higher temperature is now cooled, it becomes supersaturated at the lower temperature. Because that supersaturated solution holds more solute than is stable at the lower temperature, crystals start to form.

The correct answer for this is A
