2. you are given a clear solution of kno3. using 3 – 4 sentences (in your own words) explain how you would determine if the solution is unsaturated, saturated or supersaturated.

The degree of saturation of the solution can be determined by dissolving additional KNO3 salt in the solution. If the solution is unsaturated, the salt added to the solution will dissolve completely. If the solution is saturated, the salt added to it will not dissolve. If the solution is super saturated, addition of more salt to the solution will result in the formation of crystals.
