Water is a polar molecule, which means one part of the molecule is partially positive, the other part is partially negative. When an ionic compound is dissolved in water, the cation is attracted to the negative pole of the molecule while the anion is attracted to the positive pole.  

When another polar compound (i.e. ammonia) is dissolved in water, the negative pole of the molecule is drawn to the positive pole of water, and vice versa.
