Just think of when you put sugar in your tea, if you keep adding more sugar eventually the tea will become saturated with sugar and no more sugar will dissolve and will begin to just pile up.

Saturate:To completely fill something , so that it cannot hold anything more.
eg. saturation of water in soil.
Soil will hold most of the water added to it until it is saturated. After saturation, the soil will release water when water is added to it. Streams are formed when soil get saturated and start releasing the water.

when u add some salt into a container containing a fixed amount of water, the water molecules attract the salt molecules causing it dissolve. As the salt dissolves, the water molecules get their own share of salt molecules and if they already have, they won't get another. Saturation occurs when all of the water molecules are holding their own salt molecules but there, still, are some salt molecules..

say you put some salt in some water, it mixes, you put some more in, there are some grains down at the bottom and no matter how much you stir it they don't mix. this is because the water has reached it's saturation point.
