The substance (usually a liquid) that can dissolve another substance is called a solvent.
The substance that is being dissolved in a solution is called the solute.
In a solvent the solute is dissolved to make a solution

"solute"
A solute can dissolve in another substance. The substance that does the dissolving is called the solvent.
Salt in water is an example of solubility.
Solubility is defined as the ability of one substance to dissolve into another substance. Polarity is the main property that governs solubility. Polar molecules will dissolve in polar solvents and non polar molecules will dissolve in non polar colvents. Just remember like dissolves like. Water is polar and it is known as the univeral solvent.
When a substance cannot dissolve in another, which usually occurs because one of the substances can interact through the electromagnetic force and the other cannot, the substance is said to be "insoluble" in the other substance.

The ability of one substance to dissolve in another substance is called SOLUBILITY.
When a substance dissolves in another it is called "SOLUBLE" in that other substance. The one in greater amount is called the solvent, and the one in lesser amount is called the solute.
A substance that does not dissolve is insoluble.

It is not adequate for this type of substance; and the substance is called insoluble.
