what type of solute can dissolve on a polar solvent such as water?
As a rule polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes are dissolved in nonpolar solvents.
Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents. Non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents. Polar solutes are miscible in non-polar solvents and vice verse.
Yes, it is a very useful rule but it is not valid in all situations.
Solvents are used to dissolve solutes.

Generally polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and vice versa.

Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents. Non-polar solutes are soluble in non-polar solvents. Polar solutes are miscible in non-polar solvents and vice verse.
Nonpolar solvents are typically unable to dissolve polar or ionic solutes, as their molecular structure lacks the necessary polarity or charge to interact with these solutes. However, nonpolar solvents can dissolve nonpolar solutes, such as hydrocarbons or organic compounds with long chains of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

It gives you a clue to which solutes are soluble in which solvents.
Kind of a vague question, but perhaps you mean what are solutes? A solute is a substance, often a solid, which dissolves in a solvent, often a liquid. This leads to a discussion about polar and non-polar solutes and solvents. Generally speaking, polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and non-polar solutes dissolve in non-polar solvents. This is the chemical principle of "like dissolves like." Polarity is determined by unshared electrons causing partial charge differences across a molecule.
This means that substances are more likely to dissolve in other substances with similar chemical properties. It is most often used when discussing polar and nonpolar solvents. For example, oil will not dissolve in water because oil is nonpolar and water is polar. Basically, a polar solvent will generally dissolve polar solutes and sometimes ionic solutes, and a nonpolar solvent will generally dissolve nonpolar solutes.
