Saturation Point
The saturation point refers to the maximum level at which a substance can absorb or hold another substance without any further increase. For example, in a solution, it's the point where no more solute can dissolve in a solvent, resulting in undissolved particles remaining. Beyond this point, any additional substance won't mix in and will accumulate instead. This concept applies to various fields, including chemistry, economics, and environmental science, illustrating limits beyond which systems cannot continue to grow or change effectively. Understanding saturation points helps manage resources, optimize processes, and predict outcomes in various contexts.
