The substance is usually soluble in water or other solvents such as alcohol. It is called soluble salts
Yes. Metals can be dissolved into liquid solutions. Several metals can be dissolved in acidic media such as HNO3 to prepare acidic solutions of these metals.
Humans are a mixture of liquids and solids with small amounts of dissolved gasses.
No. Metal mixtures, called alloys, are also solutions. For example, sterling silver is an alloy of silver and copper. Also, solutions can contain dissolved gases in liquid and also more than one liquid.

Metal hydroxides dissolved in water form basic solutions, with a pH greater than 7.
When a metal is dissolved in another metal, it forms a solid solution. This process allows atoms of the dissolved metal to occupy spaces within the crystal lattice of the solvent metal, resulting in a homogeneous mixture with unique properties. Examples include brass (copper dissolved in zinc) and sterling silver (copper dissolved in silver).
An alloy is a solution of a metal dissolved in another metal. This forms a homogeneous mixture with properties different from those of the individual metals.
This is a hard question to answer... depending on the exact metal you are using, in can be dissolved in certain solutions
Magnesium can be a solute depending on the conditions, but it is not always one. In aqueous solutions, magnesium metal is not a solute, but magnesium ions can be. In solids, magnesium can be thought of as a solute in certain metal solutions known as alloys. Thus, whether or not magnesium is a solute depends on the context.
NO2 is a non-metal oxide. Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is composed of nitrogen and oxygen, both of which are non-metals on the periodic table. Non-metal oxides typically form acidic solutions when dissolved in water, as they react with water to produce acids. In contrast, metal oxides tend to form basic solutions when dissolved in water.
The corrosive potential of dissolved solids is primarily dictated by their chemical composition and concentration, particularly the presence of aggressive ions such as chloride, sulfate, and bicarbonate. These ions can alter the electrochemical properties of the environment, leading to increased metal dissolution and corrosion rates. Additionally, factors like pH, temperature, and the presence of oxygen or other oxidizing agents further influence the corrosive behavior of these dissolved solids.
