What happens when a solute crystal is added to a supersaturated solution?
  • A
    It becomes a colloidal solution.
  • B
    The solute dissolves in the solution.
  • C
    The solution desaturates.
  • D
    The solute precipitates out of the solution.

Answer

  1. The solute precipitates out of the solution.

Explanation:

Solute particles leave the solution and form a crystalline precipitate when a solute crystal is added to a supersaturated solution. Seeding refers to the addition of the solute crystal.
