ERROR IN TEXT

"Supersaturation is a measure of the deviation of a dissolved sodium chloride crystal from its equilibrium value."

should we replace NaCl with the word "Salt" - It can apply to any salt, right?

Not only to any salt but rather to anything that goes into solution with the solvent. Necmon (talk) 17:24, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

== Is anybody out there? == YEAA And does anybody really care about supersaturation?

Who are you? Does anyone care about you?

Without Supersaturation you would not have a convient little pill to take when you had a headache or fever.Witout supersaturation there would be no Aspirin. Aspirin crystals are grown using supersaturated solutions.

Also, there wouldn't be any tasty mugs of Guinness outside of a pub, were it not for supersaturation. :)

Also without supersaturation there wouldnt be a wikipedia page with a picture of a girl who looks like she is holding a giant wang. This article needs to cite sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.197.211.35 (talk) 22:42, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Explanation

I'm surprised that this article makes no mention of exactly how supersaturation occurs in the first place (as in, why does it happen?). Is this known? 24.15.197.87 (talk) 01:27, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re-write

The article has been extensively re-written. It was full of un-referenced and vague material which have been removed. 2 generic pictures have been removed as unverifiable. Supersaturation in the different media are now discussed in separate sections and more examples are given,resulting in greater clarity of presentation. The sub-topics are presented in a more logical order. Petergans (talk) 15:02, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
