The best example of a soliloquy is Juliet's "Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds" at the beginning of Act 3 Scene 2. Or "Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again" in Act 4 Scene 3.
The balcony scene has Juliet speaking when she thinks she's alone, although Romeo is listening in. To most people that would also qualify as a soliloquy.

To be, or not to be; that is the bare bodkin That makes calamity of so long life; For who would fardels bear, till Birnam Wood do come to Dunsinane, But that the fear of something after death Murders the innocent sleep, Great nature's second course, And makes us rather sling the arrows of outrageous fortune Than fly to others that we know not of. There's the respect must give us pause: Wake Duncan with thy knocking! I would thou couldst; For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The law's delay, and the quietus which his pangs might take, In the dead waste and middle of the night, when churchyards yawn In customary suits of solemn black, But that the undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveler returns, Breathes forth contagion on the world, And thus the native hue of resolution, like the poor cat i' the adage, Is sicklied o'er with care, And all the clouds that lowered o'er our housetops, With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action. 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. But soft you, the fair Ophelia: Ope not thy ponderous and marble jaws, But get thee to a nunnery - go!

A soliloquy is used to dramatize a character's internal thoughts. This could function to give the audience or reader insight into the character's emotions and concepts of their current situation. A soliloquy can function to create dramatic irony (where the audience knows information that certain characters in the play do not). A soliloquy could pose a question a character has or represent some kind of internal struggle. A good example of this is the "To be, or not to be" soliloquy from Shakespeare's Hamlet (this is also one of the most famous soliloquy's).

A soliloquy is a dramatic monologue where a character speaks their thoughts aloud, often revealing their innermost feelings or intentions. Juliet's soliloquy in Romeo and Juliet is different as she is addressing the audience directly and questioning the importance of names, whereas most soliloquies in literature are more introspective and reveal the character's internal struggles.
