Solute structure and its evolution in supersaturated aqueous solutions are key clues to understand Ostwald's step rule. Here, we measure the structural evolution of solute molecules in highly supersaturated solutions of KH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> (KDP) and NH<sub>4</sub>H<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> (ADP) using a combination of electrostatic levitation and synchrotron X-ray scattering. The measurement reveals the existence of a solution-solution transition in KDP solution, caused by changing mol ...[more]
