The water molecule is polar covalent. This is due to the unequal sharing of electrons between the very electronegative oxygen molecute and the less electronegative hydrogen molecules. Since water has a plus side where the hydrogens are and a negative side where the oxygen is, it can remove ions from a solid substance, nuetralizing them by surrounding the ions with the opposite charge and placing them into solution.

things like candy starts to dissolve in water when the bond b/w molecule of the candy start to break. and the break up occurs bacause of the water. for simplicity, if the solid thingly can b broken by water, then that thing should b able to dissolve
i think that the best i can do..

When a body is immersed in a fluid ,it displaces the fluid whose volume is equal to the volume of the body immersed in a fluid.This displaced fluid exerts an upward force on the body.This tendency of the displaced fluid is called buoyancy. Thus buoyancy is the reason for things to float on water and things get dissolved in water because, there is a large inter molecular space in them and the solid particles occupies those spaces.

things dossolve in water due to polarity..when a soluble substance is added to water, the bonds holding the structure of the substance breaks and mix with water molecules
