An example of an item that is soluble in water is salt. If you put salt in water, the salt disappears. An insoluble item in water is oil or sand, because no matter how many times you stir it, the sand or oil is always there.

Pretty much anything polar will dissolve in water (because water's polar). Two every-day things that will dissolve are salt and sugar. nonpolar things like oils and fats will not dissolve in water (which is why it's hard to wash grease off your hands--water can't dissolve it and carry it away).

It is due to polar nature of water and other materials that are soluble in water. Water is most compatible to get dissolved the materials that are polar whereas the materials that are non polar are hardly soluble in water.

Explain the phrase like dissolves like and give an example of two like substances?

In chemistry, the term like dissolves like refers to the fact that similar type solutes will dissolve in solvents that have a similar type of chemical composition. Substances like water, acetone, and alcohol are polar molecules and so are soluble in each other. Substances that form non-polar molecules like oil and gasoline are soluble in each other. However, oil will not dissolve in water because of their different chemical bonds.
