What occurs when a solid substance dissolves into a liquid? 1 It stays solid and sinks to the bottom of the liquid substance. 2
It breaks down and becomes part of the liquid substance. 3 It stays solid and floats on the top of the liquid substance. 4 It changes the liquid substance into a solid substance.
When a solid substance is dissolved in a liquid such as water, the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules in the solid substance are overcome and they exist as ions in the solution. Hence the answer is 2.
The more acidic the substance is, the more the iron nails will corrode (this obviously depends on what your experiment is but hope this helped in some way)
