Why do substances dissolve in water?

Answer 1

I believe it's because waters two hydrogen and one oxygen bonds attract other oppositely charged bonds of other molecules. Oxygen is -, hydrogen is +. The attraction is strong enough to break other bonds.

I think this is correct, but don't take my word for it. It was the best I could come up with.

Answer 2

The substance breaks down into smaller and smaller parts because of its properties in the liquid, and the parts become smaller and smaller until we can no longer see them.

Answer 3

Substances that dissolve in water have relatively weak bonds. Solubility occurs when the molecular bonds are broken and the molecules become part of the solution.

Answer 4

Some substances dissolve because either:

a- They have the same polarity as the solvent.

b- They can be ionized (like salt).

Answer 5

The hydrophilic substances
