Some solid materials don't dissolve. When their cohesive bonds are stronger than the solvent's adhesive bonds, the former stays monolithic or becomes precipitate. Whether this happens depends on the equilibrium constant between the two media and their bound state, which further depends on their affinities, concentration, temperature, and pressure. A material with a small equilibrium constant may dissolve microscopically until its solution's reverse rate is equal.

Will all solids dissolved in water?

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.
