Answer: For a given solvent (usually water), a temperature is specified because a hot solution can normally dissolve more solute than a cold solution. ... After the mass of crystals deposit, the solution is NOW SATURATED.

Do saturated solutions always form crystals?

Crystal formation can only occur when you have an unstable supersaturated solution. Examples are honey or syrup, which if allowed to stand, crystals will form. But for either unsaturated or saturated solutions, no crystals can form.

Is crystallization saturated or unsaturated?

If the rates of solubility and crystallization are the same, the solution is saturated, and dynamic equilibrium is reached.
