What is in water that causes things to dissolve?

The polar charges of the water molecules (the oxygen is somewhat negative, the hydrogens are somewhat positive) break apart the ionic bonds of the solute. For example, NaCl dissolves in water because the slight positive charge of the hydrogens attracts the chlorine ion away from the sodium ion, and the slight negative charge of the oxygen attracts the sodium ion away from the chlorine ion.
