Water would be the solvent and the solid would be the solute.
Not all the solids will dissolve in water. Different solids have different solubilities (some will dissolve more than others). The higher temperature, the more will dissolve
makes no sense
Water is called a solvent, because of the many things that dissolve in it.
The water would then be called a solvent
No, not at all. In fact most solids are INsoluble. Some solids (such as metals, stones, wood) don't dissolve while other solids like sugar or salt do dissolve. Water is a polar molecule, therefore it can dissolve only polar substances and many ionic compounds. However, it cannot dissolve non-polar substances.

Some examples of solids that dissolve are sugar, salt, and baking soda. Solids dissolve when their molecules break apart and mix with the molecules of a solvent, such as water. This process occurs due to the attractive forces between the solute and solvent molecules.
it's all about the structure of the particles and the bonds if the chemical bond are mostly ionic they will dissolve to form freely moving ions and some structures of atoms are much stronger like metallic bonds. covalent bonds do not dissolve easily but some covalent bonds break and dissolve in water. It's all about the bond and structures of different elements.
No, not all solids dissolve. Solubility depends on the specific properties of the solid and the solvent it is being dissolved in. Some solids, like salt and sugar, readily dissolve in water, while others, like sand and silver, do not dissolve easily.
Many solids are soluble in water; other are not soluble.
This phenomenon is called dissolution.
Not all solids will dissolve in water at all. Those that do dissolve do so at different rates, and it's also temperature-dependent.
