Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is: C. It is absorbed into the solvent.

Explanation:

This is because a substance is only soluble in a liquid when it completely disappears when added to the liquid after some agitation.

For example Salt and water. If you add salt to water and stir it for a few seconds, the salt completely disappears.
