About Water

The universal solvent: its hydrogen-bonding network and high dielectric constant dissolve ionic salts and polar molecules, making it the aqueous phase of most laboratory work. Purified Type II reagent water is specified for HPLC mobile phases and trace-metal analysis because tap water contributes interfering ions.
