Explore the application of Hume-Rothery rules in predicting metal dissolution in solid solutions. Analyze factors such as atomic radius, proximity in the periodic table, crystal structure, and valency to determine which metal is more likely to dissolve in another. Test your understanding with specific examples involving Al, Ag, and Zn.
