Answer:

C) polarity

Explanation:

The polar nature of water molecules allows it to dissolve like molecules, such molecules are also polar.

  • In water molecules hydrogen bonds provides a special dipole - dipole attraction.
  • Here, the hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom(oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine).
  • This leads to a charge separation in which the hydrogen atom has net positive charge and the electronegative one has negative charge.
  • This makes the molecule of water polar.
  • By this property water easily attracts oppositely charged portions of another substance and then pull them into solution.

This property of water is polarity of water.
