Short answer would be: "No". For example, benzene can dissolve almost any solid organic compound, whereas alcohols dissolve mainly solids that contain an -OH or =NH or -NH2 and water dissolves mostly the solids that have an ionic structure (like NaCl). So to be able to dissolve one certain solid with different-type dissolvents, the solid has to contain all the above-mentioned qualities: it has to be (partly) organic (H-C bonds), it has to have -OH somewhere and lastly, it has to have an ionic structure. Since no organic compounds have an ionic structure, the answere for an universal-dissolving material is no.

Do all solids dissolve in different liquids?

No, not all solids dissolve in all liquids. The ability of a solid to dissolve in a liquid depends on various factors such as the nature of the solid and the liquid, as well as their molecular structures. Some solids may dissolve in one liquid but not in another.

When solids and liquids dissolve what is the solid called?

The solid is called the solute. The resulting product is a solution.


Do all solid and liquid dissolve in each other?

No, solids and liquids do not always dissolve in each other. The ability of two substances to dissolve in each other depends on their chemical compatibility and similar molecular structures..solids dissolve in liquids when the intermolecular forces between the solid and the liquid molecules are similar.


Do all solids dissolve in liquid why?

No, not all solids dissolve in liquids. Whether a solid dissolves in a liquid depends on factors such as the nature of the solid and the liquid, the solubility of the solid in the liquid, and the temperature and pressure conditions. Solids that are insoluble do not dissolve in liquids because their intermolecular forces are too strong to be overcome by the solvent.
