Solution

The correct option is B False

Water-A Universal Solvent

  • Water can dissolve a greater variety of substances than any other liquid.
  • Hence, water is also called the universal solvent.
  • All substances do not dissolve in water.
  • For example, when salt is added to water and stirred, it dissolves completely in water, but sand does not dissolve in water.
  • Thus above statement is False.
