Question

which of the following results in water being an excellent solvent? water has a high heat capacity. water molecules are polar and form hydrogen bonds with each other. water expands when it freezes. water has a high boiling point. solutions the solution is formed when the solute dissolves in a solvent.

Explanation:

Polar water molecules can form hydrogen - bonds with other polar or charged substances, allowing them to dissolve a wide variety of solutes. High heat capacity, expansion on freezing, and high boiling point are not directly related to water's ability as a solvent.

Answer:

Water molecules are polar and form hydrogen bonds with each other.
