Are all nitrates, carbonates, oxide and sulfate solid and are all chlorides aqueous?

In order to answer this question, could you just think of a single example for each category in which this is not the case? o.O Right off the top of my head, I assume that "aqueous" simply refers to a state of matter. Chloride refers to the chlorine ion, which can be combined with different metals to form salts - can you think of one? Meanwhile, for example, oxides contain at least one oxygen atom and one other element by definition. Many common substances fit this description and not all of them are solid :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That depends. Aqueous substances are those dissolved in water (solvent). Ions Cl- or I- for expamle are also considered aqueous. Study on solubility rule too. It's stateed there that nitrates are generally soluble while carbonates are insoluble

I t depends I agree with byssine and naomi
