minor component in a solution
-multiple
Unsaturated solution
Qualitative solubility
-contains less that the max amount of dissolved solute in a given amount of solvent at a specific temp.
Saturated Solution
Qualitative solubility
-contains the max amount of dissolved solute amount of solvent at a specific temperature
Super-Saturated Solution
Qualitative solution
-contains more than the max amount of dissolved solute in a given amount of solvent at a specified temp; unstable

used with liquids to describe a solute that is soluble in a proportion with a given solvent
Immiscible
used with liquids to describe a solute that is insoluble with a given solvent
