Yes, it is a very useful rule but it is not valid in all situations.
"Like dissolves like." Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, non-polar solutes dissolve in non-polar solvents.
The general rule is: polar solutes are dissolved in polar solvents, nonpolar solutes are dissolved by nonpolar solvents.
This is a very important and useful law but it is not generally valid.

Solubility is the property of a solute to dissolve in a solvent to form a homogeneous solution. The rule "like dissolves like" is used in terms of solubility. Urea is polar while hexane is non-polar, thus urea is not soluble in hexane.

"Like Dissolves Like" is a concept in chemistry discribing hydrophobic (nonpolar) and hydrophilic (polar) interactions. Polar molecules, in order to reduce unfavorable interactions that require free energy to compensate for, tend to associate with other polar molecules. Non-polar molecules, likewise, associate with other nonpolar molecules. The terms hydrophobic and hydrophilic are used to describe a molecules tendency to associate with water. Polar molecules, using the "like dissolves like" concept associate with water, while nonpolar molecules tend to reduce interactions with water.
Sodium is highly reactive with water and dissolves in an exothermic reaction.
Whatever the precipitate is, it's not water-soluble. It's best to refer to a solubility table for this, but some general rules are: all nitrates are soluble, most chlorides and sulfates are soluble, few carbonates and hydroxides are soluble.

Markovnikov’s rule is an empirical rule used to predict regioselectivity of electrophilic addition reactions of alkenes and alkynes. It states that, in hydrohalogenation of an unsymmetrical alkene, the hydrogen atom in the hydrogen halide forms a bond with the doubly bonded carbon atom in the alkene, bearing the greater number of hydrogen atoms.

Forecasting is the action of predicting an outcome, for example weather forecaster's can predict from satellites what the weather is going to be like. This can be used in an organisation to predict the profit and revenue on a monthly basis.
Physical and chemical properties can be used to identify a substance or predict how it will behave.

Probability is predicting the chance of something happening. It can be used in genetics to predict traits we get. Like using punnett squares.
