How do stuff dissolve?

NO - <it melts it thus making it dissolve> That's what fire does.

Acids dissolve "stuff" by causing a chemical reaction in the substance, generally donating a positively charged proton (or Hydrogen without an electron) or looking at it the other way, ripping off a negatively charged electron from what ever it is dissolving. either way you look at it, the acid causes the "stuff" to change chemically into something that is more polarized because of the charge and that makes it easier for "stuff" to dissolve into the water that the acid is diluted in.

It might seem like "stuff" is melting, but that's just the heat being given off by the chemical reaction and is not directly responsible for "stuff" dissolving.
