Dissolution of Solid
In a dissolution process, two substances are required. One is called solvent and the other is solute. The substance, which dissolves in another substance, is called solute and the substance in which the solute dissolves, is called solvent. In this process the quantity of the solvent is greater than the solute. The dissolution of salt in water is dissolution of solid in liquid. The dissolution of salt in water is due to the attraction of positive and negative charges. Water is the chemical compound of hydrogen and oxygen. Two molecules of hydrogen and one molecule of oxygen forms a molecule of water.
