• Water is called the
"universal solvent"
because it is capable of
dissolving more
substances than any other
liquid.
• It is water's chemical
composition and physical
attributes that make it
such an excellent solvent.
Hydrophilic Hydrophobic
• “water-loving” • “water-fearing”
• Substances/ • Substances/
molecules that molecules that do
have a tendency to not mix with water.
mix or be wetted Examples: oil &
with water. fats
Examples: salt &
sugar
Difference Between Polar and Non-polar Molecules
1.Polar molecules have positive and negative
ends (charges) while nonpolar molecules
charges are cancelled out.
Difference Between Polar and Non-polar Molecules
2.In Polar molecules, charges is unevenly
distributed, while in nonpolar molecules
distribution of electrons is equal and are
completely symmetrical.
