No. Paper will not dissolve in water. But it will form a mixture with it. From which it can be reconstituted. a la papier mache
Think about this "Like dissolves like", if you put paper (nonpolar) into water (polar) what will happen? Paper will not dissolve in water because it is a polar molecule. Sugar; however, will dissolve quickly because it is polar.

Toilet paper dissolves so as not to clog up pipes.
Although the speed of dissolving depends on the thickness of the toilet paper; whether it is two ply or one ply, toilet paper is made to dissolve quickly in water. One of the top dissolvent chemicals listed is Scott Rapid Dissolve.
It doesn't dissolve in water, as would sugar. But it does break down into a papery pulp, which will pass through the sewerage system without causing a blockage.
About 10 days.
Most baby wipes will not dissolve the way toilet paper will. It can cause blockages in the plumbing.
Charmin toilet paper is very thick, and doesn't break down well in water. I am a plumber and have augered many sewers, pulling out intact squares of Charmin. Something so thick and heavy gets caught in any imperfections in the sewer line, and will also settle in any dips there may be. A good brand of toilet paper will dissolve and be washed away like it was water.
All toliet paper can clog a toliet...just dont use half of the roll good toilet melts in water
because paper is made of organic material (wood)
Use water!
No, it is not. It will dissolve in a week or two and cause no damage. Only shiny paper, cellophane etc is bad.
