dissolution process

Dissolution is the process where a substance, called a solute, evenly disperses within a solvent, resulting in a uniform mixture called a solution. When the solute is added to the solvent, molecules or particles of the solute interact with those of the solvent, often breaking apart or spreading out. For example, when sugar dissolves in water, sugar molecules disperse evenly throughout, creating a clear, sweet liquid. Factors like temperature, stirring, and the nature of the substances affect how quickly and completely dissolution occurs. It’s a fundamental process in chemistry that explains how substances mix and interact at the molecular level.
