A Monte Carlo simulation of a simple two-dimensional model of a water-like system is presented. A dilute solution of an apolar molecule in the same fluid is also described. The results of the two simulations will be compared in order to evidence the characteristics features of hydration around the solute particle. The objective of the described software is principally pedagogical in order to give students some insights concerning the structure of water and its role as a solvent.
