We will refer to the solubility rules in order to determine which compounds are soluble or insoluble.Solubility Rules:•Soluble Ionic Compounds:▪ Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) and Ammonium ion (NH4+) are soluble▪ Nitrates (NO3-), Acetates (CH3COO- or C2H3O2-), and most Perchlorates(ClO4-) are soluble▪ Cl-, Br-, and I-are soluble except when paired with Ag+, Pb2+, Cu+, Hg22+▪ Sulfates (SO42-) are soluble except those of Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Ag+, and Pb2+• Insoluble Ionic Compounds:[readmore]▪ Hydroxides (OH-) and Sulfides (S2-) are insoluble except when with Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) and ammonium ion (NH4+) and Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+ ▪ Carbonates (CO32-) and Phosphates (PO43-) are insoluble except when with Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) and ammonium ion (NH4+)Let’s dissociate each compound into its ionsRecall: The charges of the ions crisscross to become their subscripts in the compound.Example:The 4 signifies that Lead has a charge of +4. This means the cation is Pb4+. On the other hand, the anion in the formula is Cl–.a. AgNO3 → Ag+ + NO3-Rule: Nitrates (NO3-) are solubleAgNO3 is made up of silver(I) and nitrate ion.Silver nitrate AgNO3 is soluble.b. NaCl → Na+ + Cl-Rule: Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) are solubleNa+ is a group 1A ionRule: Cl- soluble except when paired with Ag+, Pb2+, Cu+, Hg22+Cl- is paired with a group 1A ionSodium chloride NaCl is soluble.c. Zn(OH)2 → Zn2+ + 2 OH-Rule: Hydroxides (OH-) are insoluble except when with Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) and ammonium ion (NH4+) and Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+OH- is paired with Zn2+Zinc(II) hydroxide Zn(OH)2 is insoluble.d. Hg2I2 → Hg22+ + 2 I-Rule: I- are soluble except when paired with Ag+, Pb2+, Cu+, Hg22+I- is paired with Hg22+Mercury(I) iodide Hg2I2 is insoluble.e. KNO3 → K+ + NO3-Rule: Group 1A ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) are solubleK+ is a group 1A ionRule: Nitrates (NO3-) are solublePotassium nitrate KNO3 is soluble.f. FeCl3 → Fe3+ + Cl-Rule: Cl-soluble exceptwhen paired with Ag+, Pb2+, Cu+, Hg22+Cl- is paired with Fe3+Iron(III) chloride FeCl3 is solubleg. BaSO4 → Ba2+ + SO4-Rule: Sulfates (SO42-) are soluble except those of Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Ag+, and Pb2+SO42- is paired with Ba2+Barium sulfate is insoluble.
