                color = Color.Black,
                fontWeight = FontWeight.Bold,
                fontSize = 16.sp

This composable function display an article in androidView

   @Composable
   fun ShowOnWebView(url:String) {
   val context= LocalContext.current

    AndroidView(factory = {
    WebView(context).apply {
        webViewClient= WebViewClient()
        loadUrl(url)
    }
   })
   }

You can't call set a Composable inside your non Composable scope. What you should do is have a State with boolean and set it to true when you want to show your composable.

var showWebView by remember {mutableState(false)}

Modifier.clickable {
  showWebView = true
}

if(showWebView) {
  ShowOnWebView(someUrl)
}

This is also how we display dialogs or conditional Composable such as Loading, Result, Error. It's also used for expanded/shrinked Composables too.
