In question # 59 of the AAMC7,
why is the answer
a saturated solution with 1.3g of undissolved salt instead of supersaturated solution (answer D). I looked up a definition of a supersaturated solution on wiki and in my mind, it describes exactly what the questions stem is asking. maybe the key is that it was left over for several days and the solute adsorbed to a crack or got nucleated?
please help
thank you
