O Level Chemistry: Tips on Solubility of Common Salts

Many students struggled whenever questions asking on solubility of salts came out in quizes and examinations.

Although it does require students to memorize the solubility of salts, there are several trends in the solubility of different salts that can assist us to memorise better.

Check out the Table of Common Salts below. I have included solubility of Hydroxides & Phosphates, which is not mentioned in most textbooks. Hope this helps. I will post more questions on solubility of salts. Do use this table to answer those questions. Stay Tuned!

PS: Copy, paste &print out the table above?& paste it at the back of your notebook if you find it helpful.

    What page can I find information about cristallization of salts taking as reference the solubility of the salt in?

    Tank you.

    Hi Asad,

    It is not like what you have thought. Barium Carbonate is insoluble indeed, but there are a whole lot of other salts that are soluble.

    Do have a closer look at the table above.

    It shows you which are the Soluble Salts and Insoluble Salts, when they are placed in water.

    To Your Academic Success in Chemistry,
    Sean

    Hi Bella,

    Do note that Chromium Sulphate is soluble in water.

    Cheers

    The only salts that are soluble in water are (a) ammonium phosphate, (d) copper (II) nitrate and nickel (ii) chloride. Both barium carbonate and chromium sulphate are insoluble in water.
