Bohr's theory of solubility
Bohr’s theory of solubility suggests that whether a substance dissolves in a solvent depends on the energy balance between the forces holding the particles together and those between the particles and the solvent. When the energy required to break the solute's bonds and mix it with the solvent is balanced or less than the energy released during mixing, the substance dissolves. Essentially, solubility is favored when the interactions between solute and solvent are strong enough to overcome the attractions within the solute itself, leading to a stable, dispersed solution.
