Water is a unique molecule with unique bonding properties. Part A: Explain why and how the polar covalent bonds found in water molecules are responoble for water's ability to dissolve many substances, particularly ionic compounds such as salt.
Part B: Identify the solvent and the solute in the solution that has been created in part A from the dissolving of salt in water.

Part A: Water molecules are polar, meaning that they are neutrally charged overall, but with partial positive charges on the H atoms and a partial negative charge on the O atom. Thus, polar molecules like the salt, are like the water, neutrally charged and its ions interact with both the partially positive and partially negative parts of the H2O molecules.

Part B: In a dissolution of salt in water, the solvent is the water and solute is the salt. Solvent is a substance that allows the dispersion of another substance in itself, like the water in this solution. A solute is a substance that can be dissolved, dispersed in a solvent.

Explanation:

integrated circuit (ic) is defined as a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece of semiconductor material, normally silicon. a functional electronic circuit requires transistors, resistors, capacitors, inductors, etc., and the connections between them.

lizards have adapted to life in the desert. some desert lizards have toes with spiny scales to them run across the sand without sinking. some use the sand to hide from predators, or to search for small animals that they prey upon.
