Water is called the universal solvent because it is very effective at dissolving a wide variety of compounds. It is also the essential solvent of living organisms. Thus, water has earned the nickname "universal solvent" (although water does not, in fact, dissolve all compounds).
It's not an element, but a compound that's called the universal solvent, and that compound is water. The strong polar nature of water means that it dissolves many polar covalent and ionic substances.
Water is called the universal solvent because most nearly all substances can be dissolved by water.
water itself is a universal solvent
Water is a very good and known solvent but it is not an universal solvent. An universal solvent doesn't exist and is absolutely impossible to obtain an universal solvent.
A universal solvent doesn't exist; water is a good solvent for many materials.
Salt is not called the universal solvent. Water is called the universal solvent.
Water is the substance that is often called the "universal solvent". However, in actuality, nonpolar substances cannot be dissolved in water.
The universal solvent
Water is a universal solvent.
yes water is a universal solvent as it has the property of dileteral constant which can almost break all covalent bonds as hence dissolves the matter into it
The polarity of water gives it the distinction of being called the universal solvent.
water is called as the universal solvent because almost all the substances are soluble in water .so only we call water as the universal solvent .

Water.
It's not an element, but a compound that's called the universal solvent, and that compound is water. The strong polar nature of water means that it dissolves many polar covalent and ionic substances.
An universal solvent don't exist; water is only a very good solvent for many substances, a quasi-universal solvent.
do you mean solvent. because it is called universal solvent because it dissolves alot of different things
