Sariah Kim · Answer 1

(B) SuperSaturated

Explanation:

A supersaturated solution is that which contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances.

At standard condition Solubility of KBr in water at 100°C is 1020gm/L

So, 100 ml water contains 220gm of KBr

So, 1000ml water contains 2200gm of KBr, which exceeds the normal value. So, the solution is SuperSaturated one.
