**Question 3:**

The following pictures represent solutions of CuS, which may also contain ions other than Cu\(^{2+}\) and S\(^{2-}\) which are not shown. Gray spheres represent Cu\(^{2+}\) ions and dotted spheres represent S\(^{2-}\) ions.

[Diagram of Solutions]

1. Diagram (1): Shows a distribution of gray and dotted spheres.
2. Diagram (2): Shows a different distribution with possibly more spheres.
3. Diagram (3): Shows another variation with fewer spheres.
4. Diagram (4): Shows another unique pattern of gray and dotted spheres.

*If solution (1) is a saturated solution of CuS, which of solutions (2)-(4) are supersaturated?*

- (2)
- (3)
- (4)
- None of these
