We did this as a fun way to learn the rules of solubility. Sing the rules with us, you'll regret having us stuck in your head, but you'll be thanking us when you remember Solubility RULES!!!
Lyrics:
Dissolve this
Dissolve this
Dissolve this
Ni ni ni ni nitrate and acetate
Perchlorate and even chlorate
Always are soluble
No exceptions to that rule
What else? theres ammonium
Plus the el-ments in group 1 plus charge. And such
There are salts that water cant touch
Carbonate, chromate
Oxalate and phosphate
Remember sulfides
Dont forget hydroxides. (while its rollin)
Hold on! But some salts are soluble
Like that:
Like that:
But with metals, its too much
These are salts and metals, uh, you cant touch
Dissolve this
Dissolve this
Dissolve this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_Rules - Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance called solute to dissolve in a liquid solvent to form a homogeneous solution. The solubility of a substance strongly depends on the used solvent as well as on temperature and pressure. The pressure also affects the solution whether it is gas or liquid, like temperature. So, in definition of solubility we always mention the pressure and temperature "fixed". The extent of the solubility of a substance in a specific solvent is measured as the saturation concentration where adding more solute does not increase the concentration of the solution.
.............YAWNING....................
The solvent is generally a liquid, which can be a pure substance or a mixture. One also speaks of solid solution, but rarely of solution in a gas (see vapor-liquid equilibrium instead)
...............NODDING OFF........................
The extent of solubility ranges widely, from infinitely soluble (fully miscible) such as ethanol in water, to poorly soluble, such as silver chloride in water. The term insoluble is often applied to poorly or very poorly soluble compounds.
.............YAWNING LOUDER....................
Under certain conditions the equilibrium solubility can be exceeded to give a so-called supersaturated solution, which is metastable.
thank you!
