Identify the key concept in the question: it asks for the term that describes the ability of one substance to dissolve in another.
Recall definitions of the given terms: Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution, expressed as moles of solute per liter of solution.
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance, which does not describe dissolving ability.
