Solvency is the ability of a company to pay its long term liabilities. A company that has resources to pay its debts in entirety is considered solvent. On the other hand insolvency, is when a company has more liabilities than assets, and as a result is unable to pay its debts.
Liquidity is the the ability of a company to access cash, and essentially pay its short term bills on time. When thinking of liquidity its essentially the cash that the company has on hand, and its ability to be able to access/generate cash within a year.
Some popular liquidity ratios include the current ratio, which is simply the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. The other is the quick ratio which is simply, the current ratio but excluding inventories from the current assets.
Solvency ratios consider a company's long term financial wellbeing. Some popular solvency ratios are debt to equity ratio (degree of financial leverage), and debt to assets.
Solvency and liquidity are important for a company's financial health and an enterprise's ability to meet its obligations. Both can be inter-linked at times.
