Detailed explanation-2: -Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of a substance that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specified temperature. Solubility is a characteristic property of a specific solute–solvent combination, and different substances have greatly differing solubilities.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solubility is a property referring to the ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent.
