A polar solvent will most likely dissolve a polar solute. There be dipole-dipole attractive forces occurring between the two polar substances.

Ionic solids will most likely dissolve in?
An ionic solute requires a very strong polar solvent such as water in which to dissolve.
Can a non polar solute dissolve nonpolar solvent?
Yes, like dissolves like so a nonpolar solvent dissolves nonpolar solutes and polar solvents dissolve polar solutes
Substance that can dissolve in a particular solvent?
A substance that can dissolve in particular solvent is called a solute. The resulting mixture is called a solution. A general rule is that "like dissolves like." If a solute is polar, it will need a polar solvent to fully dissolve it.
Is the following combinations expected to be soluble or insoluble polar solute and non-polar solvent?
A polar solute would be insoluble in a non-polar solvent. The rule of thumb is "likes dissolve likes".
What happen when a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent?
the non polar solute gets dissolved as non polar solutes tend to dissolve in non polar solvents than in polar solvents. for eg: benzene(non polar solute) gets dissolved in carbon tetrachloride which is a non polar solvent but not in water because it is a polar solvent.
Which solutes dissolve?
It depends on the polarity of the solute and the solvent. If the solute is polar, then it will only dissolve in a polar solvent If the solute in nonpolar, then it will only dissolve in a nonpolar solvent

What does a polar solvent dissolve in?
a polar solvent dissolves a non polar solute
In general a polar solvent can not dissolve a solute?
nonpolor
Can a non polar solute dissolve nonpolar solvent?
Yes, like dissolves like so a nonpolar solvent dissolves nonpolar solutes and polar solvents dissolve polar solutes

Explain how a solute can dissolve in polar and nonpolar solvents?
=a polar solvent dissolves a polar solute, and nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes. likes dissolve likes=
Why wouldn't candy dissolve in a drink?
Generally a polar solute is dissolved in a polar solvent.
An ionic solute will probably dissolve best in a?
warm, polar solvent
Is the following combinations expected to be soluble or insoluble polar solute and non-polar solvent?
A polar solute would be insoluble in a non-polar solvent. The rule of thumb is "likes dissolve likes".
What happen when a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent?
the non polar solute gets dissolved as non polar solutes tend to dissolve in non polar solvents than in polar solvents. for eg: benzene(non polar solute) gets dissolved in carbon tetrachloride which is a non polar solvent but not in water because it is a polar solvent.
Polar solvents dissolve the solute?
Polar solvents will dissolve ionic or polar solutes. This is due to the solubility rule that states that like dissolves like. So a polar solvent will not dissolve non-polar solutes.
