01.04 lc)water is often called the "universal solvent" because many substances can be dissolved in water. what property of water allows it to be such a versatile solvent?

Hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

The hydrogen bonding is the phenomenon which is responsible for the dissolving many solute particles in the water.

They help to dissolve different types of materials in it. There is a difference in the electronegativity of the oxygen atom and hydrogen atom.

There is a strong covalent bond between hydrogen and electronegative atom here, it is oxygen. It can be fluorine, chlorine, et cetera.

This property of water makes it a versatile solvent.

hydrogen is a compound or a single element and a element is a pure substence that cannot be separated into simpler subtances

clorine is a compound its a chemical substance that forms when two or more different elements combine

so both hydrogen and clorine are compounds
