saturation levels

Saturation levels refer to the point at which a substance, like a liquid or a gas, can no longer hold or absorb more of a material or energy. In liquids, it’s the maximum amount of a solute that can dissolve at a given temperature. Once saturated, any additional solute or energy won't dissolve or be absorbed and may result in separate phases or excess material. Saturation is important in fields like chemistry, physics, and engineering, as it determines whether a process will continue or if equilibrium has been reached.
