Water is a universal solvent is true

Explanation:

  • Because it can absorb more chemicals than any other liquid, water is described as the "universal solvent."
  • This is essential for all living things on earth. It enables the water molecule to be attracted to a broad range of other molecules.
  • The oxygen and hydrogen atoms in water molecules are oriented polarly, with one side (hydrogen) maintaining a positive electrical charge and the other side (oxygen) having a negative charge.
  • Water is a protic solvent.
  •  Aprotic solvents like acetone and dichloromethane have large dipole moments  and solvate positively charged species via their negative dipole moments.
