Water is called universal solvent because it can dissole the polar substances in it and also some quantity of non-polars as well.It dissolve polar substances because it have strong force of attraction with them an d dissolve small amount of non-polars because the water have weak force of attraction with them.
Salt is not a universal solvent. Water is often referred to as the universal solvent due to its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances. Salt, on the other hand, is a solute that can dissolve in water or other solvents to form a solution.
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
Carbon is not a universal solvent. Water is often referred to as the universal solvent because of its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances due to its polar nature. Carbon, on the other hand, is not a solvent in the same way as water.
The most versatile and broadly useful solvent known to man is water. It is sometimes called a universal solvent, as a form of poetic exaggeration.
actually the substance in which a thing dissolves is called a solvent, and the things which dissolves in the solvent is called a solute. and water is called a universal solvent cuz it can dissolve a very wide range of solutes with a slight differende in their solubilities( that is the capacity to dissolve). fr eg in the case of sugar solution water is a 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.
Salt is not a universal solvent. Water is often referred to as the universal solvent due to its ability to dissolve a wide variety of substances. Salt, on the other hand, is a solute that can dissolve in water or other solvents to form a solution.
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.
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
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
