Undissolved means not dissolved: still solid in a liquid, not mixed in so that it disappears. [tree →](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/U/undissolved/#m1)

### sense in the lessons

In science lessons on solutions and mixtures, pupils stir sugar or salt into water: if some sugar stays at the bottom, it is undissolved. A substance stays undissolved because the liquid is saturated (can't hold any more), or because the substance is insoluble, like sand. Undissolved solids can be separated by filtering. Phrases: «undissolved sugar», «undissolved solid».

### note

Prefix un- (not) + dissolved. «Dissolve» means mix into a liquid so you can't see it; dissolving is not melting — melting needs heat and no liquid. Mass is kept: dissolved sugar is still in the water.
