Answer:

As they absorb energy, they are broken.

Explanation:

Solutes dissolve when they interact with water. This is because, the attraction of solute particles with each other weakens and become replaced by solute-solvent interaction. As the water surrounds the solute, the solute is now said to be hydrated.

Energy is required to break solute-solute bonds. This energy absorbed in breaking solute-solute bonds is compensated for by the energy liberated when solute particles are hydrated.

If energy required to break solute-solute interaction is less than the energy liberated when solute particles are hydrated, the substance will dissolve in water.

Hence, as a substance dissolve in water, energy is absorbed when solute-solute interactions are broken.
