Describe the three steps of solution formation. be sure to include the details regarding the dissolving of the substance

The three steps involve;

Step 1: Separation/expansion of the solute particles

Step 2: Separation/expansion of the solvent particles

Step 3; Combining the solute and solvent particles

The first two steps are usually endothermic. Step 3, nonetheless, can be either exothermic or endothermic and is significant in determining whether the dissolving process will be endothermic or exothermic.
