Describe hоw the prоperties оf wаter mаke it аn ideal solvent for biological reactions, by filling in the blanks. The unequal sharing of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms within a water molecule makes water a [polar] molecule. As a result of the electron configuration of a water molecule, water is a great [solvent] because water  form a [hydration shell] around a [solute] dissolving it into solution as long it is not [nonpolar]. The reason water behaves in this manner is because the [positive] charge on the hydrogen end of the water molecule is attracted to the negative charge of a polar molecule, while the [negative] charge of the oxygen end of the water molecule is attracted to the positive side of a polar molecule.
