Ion solubility in water Flashcards
1
Q
What are the ionic compounds that are always soluble in water ?
A
- Alkaline metals (first row) Na+, K+, Li+, Rb+, Cs +
- Polyatomic atoms
* NH4+
* C2H3O-
* ClO3-
* Cl04-
2
Q
Which ionic compounds are usually soluble in water
A
- On their own: Cl-, Br-, I-
Except when these are paired with
Ag+, Pb+ and Hg2 2+
meaning anytime these are in an aqueous solution with the above they will most likely precipitate
- Polyatomic atom
Sulfate (SO4 -2) - except when it is paired with Ca+, Ba+ Sr+, Pb +
Fluorides (F-)- except when paired with Ca+, Ba+, Sr+, Pb+, Mg -2
3
Q
Which ionic molecule or compound are usually never soluble?
A
-O2 or OH- ( oxide or hydrogen)
Except when paired with Ca2+, Ba 2+, Sr 2
