    The process of a material becoming incorporated uniformly into another or mixing together evenly.

    • Catalyst

    • Dissolving

    • Element

    • Solution

    Correct Answer
    A. Dissolving
    Explanation
    Dissolving is the process of a material (solute) becoming uniformly incorporated into another substance (solvent), resulting in a homogeneous mixture called a solution. This occurs when the solute particles break apart and disperse throughout the solvent, forming individual solute particles that are evenly distributed. The process of dissolving is often facilitated by a catalyst, which speeds up the dissolution process. Elements, on the other hand, are pure substances that cannot dissolve in other substances. Therefore, the correct answer is dissolving.
