Because water can dissolve more substances than any other liquid.

Explanation:

  • Water is the source of life on earth.
  • It has the potential to dissolve more substances than any other liquid this is why it is sometimes called a Universal Solution.
  • The polarity of each molecule of water makes it a solvent.
  • The hydrogen part of the H2O carries a little positive electric charge with it while the oxygen part contains some negative electric charge.
  • Both these help water to separate the ionic compounds into the positive and the negative ions.
  • Since water has this quality of dissociation it is called the Universal Solution.
