Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth.Substances that dissolve into a solvent are called solutes, and the resulting mixture is a solution. Water is an excellent solventbecause its polar water molecules form hydrogen bonds with ions and polarmolecules, allowing ionic and polar covalent compounds to disperse easily in water.
