Water is a solvent, because some solids will dissolve in it.
Water is called a solvent, because of the many things that dissolve in it.
"The Universal Solvent" is a nerdy nickname for water. It got the name because it is able to dissolve more solids than any other liquids on Earth. This is due to its hydrogen bond.
sugar, salt syrup anything really because if something dissolves in a hot solvent will dissolve in cold but the hot solvent will dissolve faster because the hot particles give off more energy and the hot solvent gets evenly mixed faster then the cold solvent.im in 7th grade so dont blame me if i got it wrongb SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P----------The solubility of solids in liquids is direct proportional with the temperature; in a cold solvent the solubility is reduced.
Yes, water is a solvent for all solids found in the natural world. Sometimes water is called the "universal solvent." Hot water tends to allow items to dissolve more quickly than cold water.
to increase the surface area of the solute
to increase the surface area of the solute
To increase the surface area of the solute, which allows it to dissolve faster.

There is no solvent in magma. Rocks turn to a liquid state because of super-heating, not because the solids were dissolved in any solvent.
Because the water is called the "Universal Solvent"
Water is called a solvent, because of the many things that dissolve in it.
The solute
Ionic solids most likely dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent.
Atom by atom.
Solvent
Not necessarily. It may also be a gas or a solid. In any mixture, the component that is present in the largest proportion is known as a solvent. For example, in our atmosphere, Nitrogen (78% by volume) is the solvent. This is a gaseous mixture.
