Correct Answer: Option D

Explanation

Water is often referred to as the "universal solvent" because of its ability to dissolve a wide range of substances. This unique property is mainly due to water's polar nature. Water molecules have a slightly positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a slightly negative charge on the oxygen atom, making it a polar molecule. This polarity allows water molecules to interact with and surround other polar and ionic substances, breaking them down and forming solutions.
