Solubility in water

Solubility in water refers to the ability of a substance to dissolve and form a uniform mixture, called a solution, with water. It depends on the interactions between the molecules of the substance and water molecules. Substances with high solubility readily dissolve, like sugar or salt, while those with low solubility, such as oil or sand, do not dissolve easily. Factors like temperature and pressure can affect solubility. Understanding solubility helps in processes like cooking, medication delivery, and industrial manufacturing, where dissolving substances in water is often essential.
