solubility rules Flashcards
solute
solid that dissolves in a solvent
solvent
liquid that a solute dissolves in
solution
the mixture produced when a solute is dissolved in a solvent
saturated solution
the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent for a given temperature
how is solubility measured
‘max mass of solute that is soluble’g/100g ‘liquid’
nitrates
always soluble
sodium, potassium, ammonium compounds
always soluble
sulfates
soluble except barium, calcium and lead(II)
carbonates
insoluble except group 1 and ammonium compounds
hydroxides
insoluble except sodium, potassium and calcium (calcium hydroxide is slightly soluble)
oxides
insoluble except sodium and potassium compounds
halides
soluble except lead (Pb) and silver (Ag)
chlorides
soluble except lead (Pb) and silver (Ag)
hydrogen, hydroxide, ammonium, carbonate, nitrate, sulfates formulae and charges
