Step-by-step solution for: Solubility Rules Table Worksheet with Key | Exercises Economic ...
Problem Analysis:
The worksheet involves two main tasks:
1. Classifying substances as soluble or insoluble in water based on solubility rules.
2. Identifying new compounds formed and predicting precipitation when solutions are mixed.
Let's solve each part step by step.

Task 1: Classify each of the substances as being soluble or insoluble in water
#### Solubility Rules Recap:
1. All salts of alkali metals (Group 1) and ammonium ions (NH₄⁺) are soluble.
2. Nitrates (NO₃⁻), acetates (CH₃COO⁻), and chlorates (ClO₃⁻) are soluble.
3. Chlorides (Cl⁻), bromides (Br⁻), and iodides (I⁻) are generally soluble, except for those of Ag⁺, Pb²⁺, and Hg₂²⁺.
4. Sulfates (SO₄²⁻) are soluble, except for those of Ba²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ca²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Hg₂²⁺.
5. Carbonates (CO₃²⁻), phosphates (PO₄³⁻), sulfides (S²⁻), and hydroxides (OH⁻) are generally insoluble, except for those of alkali metals and ammonium ions.
6. Silver (Ag⁺), lead (Pb²⁺), and mercury (Hg₂²⁺) salts are insoluble, except for nitrates, acetates, and chlorates.
#### Classification:
Using the solubility rules, we classify each substance:
- a. KBr: Potassium bromide. K⁺ is an alkali metal, so it is soluble.
- Soluble
- b. PbCO₃: Lead(II) carbonate. Carbonates are generally insoluble, except for those of alkali metals and ammonium ions.
- Insoluble
- c. Zinc hydroxide: Zn(OH)₂. Hydroxides are generally insoluble, except for those of alkali metals and ammonium ions.
- Insoluble
- d. Sodium acetate: NaCH₃COO. Sodium is an alkali metal, and acetates are soluble.
- Soluble
- e. Silver iodide: AgI. Iodides are generally soluble, but silver salts are insoluble except for nitrates, acetates, and chlorates.
- Insoluble
- f. Zinc carbonate: ZnCO₃. Carbonates are generally insoluble, except for those of alkali metals and ammonium ions.
- Insoluble
- g. Silver acetate: AgCH₃COO. Acetates are soluble, and silver salts are soluble in this case.
- Soluble
- h. Copper(II) sulfide: CuS. Sulfides are generally insoluble.
- Insoluble
- i. Mg₃(PO₄)₂: Magnesium phosphate. Phosphates are generally insoluble.
- Insoluble
- j. KOH: Potassium hydroxide. Alkali metal hydroxides are soluble.
- Soluble
- k. NH₄OH: Ammonium hydroxide. Ammonium salts are soluble.
- Soluble
- l. Hg₂SO₄: Mercury(I) sulfate. Sulfates are generally soluble, but mercury(I) salts are insoluble.
- Insoluble
- m. PbI₂: Lead(II) iodide. Iodides are generally soluble, but lead(II) salts are insoluble.
- Insoluble
#### Final Classification:
- a. KBr = Soluble
- b. PbCO₃ = Insoluble
- c. zinc hydroxide = Insoluble
- d. sodium acetate = Soluble
- e. silver iodide = Insoluble
- f. zinc carbonate = Insoluble
- g. silver acetate = Soluble
