1

  1. Compounds containing Group I cations or the ammonium ion (NH4+) are considered soluble.

2

  1. Compounds containing the nitrate ion (NO3- ) or the acetate ion (CH3COO- ) as the anion are considered soluble.

3

  1. Most compounds containing the halide ions (F- , Cl- , Br- , I- ) as the anion are soluble.

EXCEPTIONS: Hg22+ (mercury (I)), Cu+ (copper (I)), Pb2+ (lead (II)), and Ag+

(silver) are not soluble.

Merry (mercury H2 +2)

Cooper (copper Cu+)

leads (lead II Pb2+)

Sec (solver Ag+)

4

  1. Most compounds containing the sulfate ion (SO4-2) as the anion are soluble.

EXCEPTIONS: calcium, barium, strontium, lead (II), and silver.

Ba2+ (barium), Sr2+ (strontium), and Pb2+ (lead (II)) are not soluble

Ca2+ (calcium) and Ag+ (silver) are slightly soluble.

Strong (strontium Sr2+)

Bears (barium, Ba2+)

lead (lead II Pb2+)

sec (Silver Ag+)

camps (calcium, Ca+2)

5

  1. Most compounds containing the hydroxide ion (OH- ) as the anion are not soluble/insoluble.

EXCEPTIONS: barium, strontium, calcium (Group II).

Ba2+ (barium) is soluble.

Ca2+ (calcium) and Sr2+ (strontium) are slightly soluble.

Strong (strontium Sr2+)

Bear (barium, Ba2+)

Camp (calcium, Ca+2)

6

Most compounds containing phosphate ion (PO4-3), chromate ion (CrO4-2), sulfite ion (SO3-2), or carbonate ion (CO3-2) as the anion are insoluble.

7

Most compounds containing sulfide ion (S-2) as the anion are insoluble.
