Solubility Rules
The following rules are used in several chemistry-related topics, such as predicting reactions and quantitative analysis. You will learn these topics this year in AP Chemistry but if you don’t know your solubility rules, you’ll have a really hard time. Solubility rules must be committed to memory. No, seriously. You might even be tested on it later!
|Soluble | |Exceptions (Insoluble) |
|ammonium |NH4+ | |
|Potassium1 |K+ | |
|Sodium1 |Na+ | |
|nitrate |NO3- | |
|acetate |C2H3O2- | |
|Chloride2 |Cl- |Ag+, Hg2+2, Pb+2 |
|sulfate |SO4-2 |Ba+2, Pb+2, Hg2+2, Ag+ |
|chlorate |ClO3- | |
|perchlorate |ClO4- | |
1 all Group I metals
2 Also, binary compounds of Br- and I- with metals are soluble. Exceptions are the same as with Chloride.
|Insoluble | |Exceptions (Soluble) |
|Hydroxide |OH- |*, Ba+2, Ca+2, Sr+2 |
|Oxide |O-2 |*, Ba+2, Ca+2, Sr+2 |
|Phosphate |PO4-3 |* |
|Carbonate |CO3-2 |* |
|Sulfide |S-2 |* |
|Sulfite |SO3-2 |* |
|Silicate |SiO3-2 |* |
|Silver |Ag+ |NO3- |
* Group IA metals and NH4+
All strong acids and strong bases will ionize, or separate into its ions when reacting with water, completely. The only strong acids are: HCl, H2SO4, HClO4, HI, HBr, and HNO3. The strong bases are: NaOH, LiOH, KOH, Li2O.
When you look at the solubility chart, you will notice that other bases, such as Ca(OH)2 and Ba(OH)2, are said to be soluble as well. However, except for the strong bases listed, all other bases are only SLIGHTLY soluble. Slightly soluble compounds mean that they will ionize only a little bit. To be safe, all bases, except for the strong bases listed above, should not be turned into its ions.
Also if one part of a compound is soluble but the other isn’t, then the whole compound is insoluble. For example, in AgClO3, ClO3- is soluble but Ag+ is not. Therefore, the whole compound is insoluble.
Precipitation Reactions
Solubility Rules are critical in the field of reactions, especially precipitation reactions. A precipitation reaction occurs when two soluble salts are added, forming an insoluble salt (the precipitate) and a soluble salt.
Soluble Salt + Soluble Salt ( Insoluble Salt + Soluble Salt
For each of the following, write the reactions. (Note: If you have not already memorized all the Solubility Rules, go back and memorize them and then come back to this.)
Separate the compounds into ions when they are soluble. Remember, strong acids and bases ionize completely; therefore they are separated into ions. Cross out common ions, which are also known as spectator ions. That’s the cool scientific term.
Don’t forget to balance the equation.
Ex: A solution of silver nitrate is added to a solution of potassium chloride.
Molecular Equation:
AgNO3 + KCl ( AgCl + KNO3
Molecular is basically what you get when you don’t ionize anything.
Complete Ionic Equation:
Ag+ + NO3- + K+ + Cl- ( AgCl + K+ + NO3-
Complete Ionic is when you ionize the compounds into their ions.
Net-Ionic Equation:
To get to the net-ionic form, cross out the spectator ions.
Ag+ + NO3- + K+ + Cl- ( AgCl + K+ + NO3-
The answer will then be:
Ag+ + Cl- ( AgCl
This is the form that AP classes will usually take, unless specified.
For this question, Silver chloride precipitates, or forms a solid because it does not ionize.

5. soluble 10. insoluble 15. insoluble 20. soluble 25. insoluble 30. soluble
II. Precipitation Reactions
(The following answers are in the form of net ionic equations. Common ions are negligible.)
1. AgBr precipitates: Ag+ + Br- ( AgBr
2. MnCO3 precipitates: CO3-2 + Mn+2( MnCO3
3. CuCO3 precipitates: Cu+2 + CO3-2 ( CuCO3
4. CaF2 precipitates: Ca+2 + 2F- ( CaF2

6. BaSO4 precipitates: Ba+2 + SO4-2 ( BaSO4
7. Hg2Cl2 precipitates: 2Cl- + 2Hg+ ( Hg2Cl2
8. No precipitate because this isn’t a precipitation reaction. The soluble salt + soluble salt part is right, but those two don’t make an insoluble salt + soluble salt in this reaction. If you write it out, you should get: 3LiC2H3O2 + FeBr3 ( 3LiBr + Fe(C2H3O2)3. Everything in this reaction, from the reactant to the products, is soluble.
