When a substance is insoluble or does not dissolve in a solvent, it forms a separate phase. This can be in the form of a solid settling at the bottom (sedimentation), particles suspended in the solvent (suspension), or a separate layer on top (immiscibility or phase separation).
A solid that dissolves in a liquid is called a solute. The term solute means that which is dissolved. A solution is the resulting mixture of solute and solvent. A solvent is that which dissolves. Water is the most common solvent; if sugar dissolves in water, then sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The term insoluble means does not dissolve, so for example, glass is insoluble in water. That's why you can pour water into a glass and the glass remains intact.
For example a liquid containing an insoluble solid.
well, filtering is used to separate an insoluble solid from a solvent, such as mud and water_
water
Simple: an insoluble material (in a given solvent, at a given temperature and pressure).
Solutions - (homogeneous) solute dissolved in a solvent Emulsion - (heterogeneous) mixture of 2 immiscible liquids Suspension - (heterogeneous) mixture of liquid and insoluble solid

insoluble example: sugar dissolves into water
If the solid is soluble a solution id formed.If the solid is insoluble a heterogeneous liquid mixture is formed.
The three basic types of mixtures in Chemistry are suspension mixture, colloidal mixture and solution.
The word solvent is not used for solid-gas aerosols or for gases trapped in solids.
A solute is a solid that dissolves in the liquid. The liquid is called the solvent. Together, they make the solution.If the solute dissolves in the solvent, it means that the solid is soluble. If it doesn't, it is insoluble.
solute is the solid solvent is the liquid solution is the mixture of the two
For example a liquid containing an insoluble solid.
