Solid - Liquid Equilibrium

The video explains the process of dissolving sugar in water to form a dilute solution, which becomes concentrated upon heating. When cooled, sugar crystals form, leading to a saturated solution where no more sugar can dissolve. This state represents an equilibrium between the dissolved sugar and the solid sugar, with the rates of dissolution and crystallization being equal.

Define a saturated solution in the context of sugar and water.

Explain the equilibrium state that exists in the sugar solution.
