Substances dissolve in alcohol due to the polarity and molecular structure of alcohol, which allows it to interact effectively with various solutes. Alcohol, such as ethanol, has both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties, enabling it to dissolve a wide range of polar and nonpolar compounds. The hydrogen bonding capabilities of alcohol also facilitate interactions with solutes, leading to their dissolution. This dual nature makes alcohol an excellent solvent for many organic and inorganic substances.
