Typically, it goes like this:

Solute + Solvent = Solution

But a liquid can also dissolve in liquid; gas in liquid; gas in solid and finally solid in solid.

Solid solutions are common in metal compounds. Two compounds/element with suitable crystal lattice structures maybe melted and mixed in proper composition. The additional atoms/compounds take up space in the existing crystal lattice or distort it in a certain way to form a new material. The properties of this new material may be totally different from the individual components (example A) or be an enhancement of the properties of the old components (example B).

example A: Alloys

example B: Iron and Carbon will make Steel; Lead Zirconate Titanate and additive atoms for advanced Piezoelectric materials

Two solids can't dissolve each other, but if you melt them down you can combine them to form something new; if you did that with metals you would be making an alloy

ex: tin+copper=bronze
