Answer: Water can dissolve salt
Explanation:
The polarity of water molecules enables water to dissolve many ionically bonded substances.
Salt (sodium chloride) is made from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions.
Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.
The amount of a substance that can dissolve in a liquid (at a particular temperature) is called the solubility of the substance.
The substance being dissolved is called the solute, and the substance doing the dissolving is called the solvent.
