Description
1) A color at maximum intensity or purity. A saturated color has not been mixed with white or black. Also called intensity.
2) The state of a solution when it has the maximum amount of solute dissolved under given conditions. For example, a saturated salt solution has undissolved salt present in the solution to ensure that the maximum available salt ions are dissolved.
3) The condition in which two physical states coexist in equilibrium. For example, air saturated with water vapor exists in an equilibrium with liquid water.
4) A hydrocarbon compound that does not have any double bonds. Hexane is a saturated hydrocarbon.
5) Any material filled to capacity or charge thoroughly.
