What term describes a solution that has dissolved the maximum amount of solute under normal conditions?

A solution that has dissolved the maximum amount of solute under normal conditions is termed saturated. In a saturated solution, the solute is in equilibrium with the undissolved solute; that is, no more solute can dissolve at the given temperature and pressure, which means the solvent has reached its capacity to hold the solute.

A supersaturated solution, by contrast, contains more solute than can typically remain dissolved at that temperature and pressure, often achieved by changing conditions such as temperature. An insoluble substance refers to a solute that does not dissolve in a particular solvent at all, while an unsaturated solution is one that contains less solute than can be dissolved at that temperature and pressure. Therefore, the term that best describes a solution at its maximum solute capacity is saturated.
