faire fondre= to melt dissoudre= to dissolve However because in French "faire fondre" can mean dissolve (although it is much more commonly used to mean melt), one can talk about melting as 'faire fondre (quand on chauffe)' = to melt (when one heats). Very few French will use 'le sucre s'est dissous dans l'eau' (the sugar dissolved, which is exact), they will say 'le sucre a fondu dans l'eau (the sugar melt in the the water).
