Visual Cues
Imagine the substance fading away into the liquid to understand 'dissolve' in a physical context.

The colored dye dissolved in the water, making it turn red.
Not Always Visible
'Dissolve' doesn't mean the substance is gone; it's just mixed thoroughly.

Salt dissolves in water, but it's still there, just not visible.
