A saturated solution is one that cannot dissolve any more solute at that temperature. If you add more, it just sinks to the bottom instead of dissolving.

Define transmittance (T) and absorbance (A), and give the equation relating them.1 / 10
Transmittance T = I/I₀ is the fraction of incident light intensity (I₀) that passes through the sample and reaches the detector (I) — a value between 0 and 1 (or 0–100% as %T). Absorbance is the base-10 negative logarithm of transmittance:
