Assertion :
Water is good solvent for ionic compounds but poor one for covalent compounds.
Reason :
Hydration energy of ions releases sufficient energy to overcome lattice energy and break hydrogen bonds in water while covalent bonded compounds interact so weakly that even van der Waal’s forces between molecules of covalent compounds cannot be broken.
