In chemistry, a dipole is a molecule that because of it's structure has a concentration of electrons on one side of the molecule while drawing electrons away from the other side.

This can be particularly useful in organic chemistry if you need those electrons to synthesize a particular bond in a specific spot of the molecule.

How does dipolar nature of water molecule make it an effective solvent for ionic compounds like salt?

The dipolar nature of water molecule allows it to form interactions with charged ions in ionic compounds. The partial negative charge on oxygen attracts cations while the partial positive charge on hydrogen attracts anions, breaking apart the ionic lattice of the compound. This allows water to surround and solvate individual ions, effectively dissolving the ionic compound.
