Answer: The correct answer is water is considered to be a universal solvent.

Explanation: Water has a molecular formula of H_2O having 2 atoms of hydrogen atom and 1 atom of oxygen atom. This is a polar molecule because of the presence of electronegativity difference between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

Since, it is a polar molecule and it will attract other polar molecules towards itself which means that polar molecules can easily get dissolved in water when it is used as a solvent.

It is known as the universal solvent because it dissolves more substances more than any other liquid.

Therefore, water is known as the universal solvent.

<span>One mole of a substance contains Avogadro's number of atoms/molecules/the like. This would mean that all of the items described would have approximately 6.022 * 10^23 atoms, even though their masses would differ. This would be due to the molar mass of each substance being different because of the constituent elements in the substance.</span>
