Because of its Universal Solvent
Something that will dissolve anything. But there is nothing that will do that. Water is the most universal, but won't dissolve eveything.No options are given. But generally water is considered as the universal solvent because it can dissolve most polar and ionic compounds..
water is considered the universal solvent because it can dissolve so many materials.
Universal solvent...
Water is called the universal solvent because most nearly all substances can be dissolved by water.
because there are 2 totally different types of molecules, you have the polar and apolar molecules. the polar molecules will only dissolve in a polar solvent, the apolar moleculesin a apolar solvent. this is the reason why oil doesn't mix with water. oil is apolar and water polar

Water is the compound that is the universal solvent. it is called this because more substances dissolve in water than in anything else.
Water can dissolve almost anything (eventually over time)
its the universal solvent because it dissolve in water and the dipole charteristics makes it a universal solvent
water is considered the universal solvent because it can dissolve so many materials.
Because a lot of substances can dissolve into mix into or in some cases dissolve from water
Yes, water is a very good solvent but not universal.
Water is a universal solvent.

Water has been called the "universal Solvent" for just this reason. How much of a specific material it might dissolve is another question, but generally speaking it will dissolve anything, but perhaps in very small amounts.
