What are the 3 interactions that happens in a solution

What are the 3 interactions that happens in a solution between the solute and the solvents? Describe the interactions in terms of salt dissolved in water. 1) Solute-solute interaction (x-x): They are the intermolecular force of attraction between Solute particles only. Hence Solute binds other solute molecules. 2) Solute - Solvents interaction(x-y): it is known as solvents. When salt(NaCl) is dissolved in water It dissociates in ion of Na+ and Cl- and they both are surrounded by water molecules due to this interaction. (Na+ by negative dipole of oxygen and Cl- by positive dipole of water 3) Solvents-Solvents interaction(y-y): They are intermolecular force of attraction between solvents particles only. Hence solvents binds other solvents molecules. In case of salt and water Solute-Solvent forces are very much stronger. So they dissolves easily.
