The correct answer is:

C. saturated

Explanation:
A vapor is said to be saturated when its molecules are in dynamic equilibrium with those of the liquid. This means that the rate at which molecules are evaporating from the liquid phase equals the rate at which they are condensing back into the liquid phase. At this point, the vapor pressure is constant, and the system is in a state of equilibrium.

Unsaturated (A) refers to a vapor that is not in equilibrium with its liquid phase, meaning it could still evaporate to increase the vapor pressure.

Gaseous (B) simply refers to the state of matter and does not necessarily imply equilibrium with the liquid phase.

Diffused (D) refers to the spreading of molecules in a medium, but it doesn't describe equilibrium between liquid and vapor
