Solubility

                    The amount of substance that will dissolve in a given amount of solvent is called solubility. Solubility is defined by two terms. Soluble and insoluble Or sparingly soluble.

Soluble:
  Soluble without limits is known as miscible. For example alcohol in water. Alcohol is soluble in water. So it will form a clear solution.

Insoluble :
   It is otherwise known as immiscible  or sparingly soluble. For example oil in water. Oil is insoluble in water. So the two liquids form a separate layer.
