this attraction is based on the polarity of the solute and the solvent. if both the solute and the solvent are polar, the solute will dissolve in the solvent. the same can also be said if the solute and the solvent are nonpolar. this results in the formation of a solution.however, if the solute and the solvent have differing polarities (i.e., one is polar and the other is nonpolar), they will not dissolve in one another, and a solution will not form.which substance will dissolve in water?
