Refers to the ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent

Real World Example

Imagine trying to mix sugar into your morning coffee, but no matter how much you stir, it just won't dissolve. This is similar to the concept of solubility, which refers to the ability of a substance (the solute, like sugar) to dissolve in a liquid (the solvent, like coffee). Just as some substances mix seamlessly into liquids, making them taste just right, solubility describes how well a solute can integrate into a solvent, transforming the mixture into a uniform solution.
