← ScienceWhich outcome predominates when ionic concentration greatly exceeds solubility limit in a solution?
A)Electrode polarization reduces conductivity
B)Crystalline precipitate forms spontaneously✓
C)Increased osmotic pressure ruptures membranes
D)Solvent boiling point decreases sharply
💡 Explanation
When ionic concentration exceeds solubility, supersaturation drives nucleation because ions randomly aggregate, overcoming solvation energy and forming stable crystal lattice. Therefore crystalline precipitate results, rather than polarization, osmotic rupture, or boiling point changing, which depend on other ionic solution properties.
