A student adds solid KCl to water in a flask. The flask is sealed with a stopper and thoroughly shaken until no more solid KCl dissolves. Some solid KCl is still visible in the flask. The solution in the flask is A) saturated and is at equilibrium with the solid KCl B) saturated and is not at equilibrium with the solid KCl C) unsaturated and is at equilibrium with the solid KCl D) unsaturated and is not at equilibrium with the solid KCl

Option (A) saturated and is at equilibrium with the solid KCl

Explanation:

A saturated solution is a solution which can not dissolve more solute in the solution.

From the question given above, we can see that the solution is saturated as it can not further dissolve any more KCl as some KCl is still visible in the flask.

Equilibrium is attained in a chemical reaction when there is no observable change in the reaction system with time. Now, observing the question given we can see that there is no change in flask as some KCl is still visible even after thorough shaking. This simply implies that the solution is in equilibrium with the KCl solid as no further dissolution occurs.
