A)lead sulfate B)silver nitrate C)sodium carbonate D)zinc chloride

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And why?

OpenStudy (maddyx):

It should be lead sulphate (due to ionic equilibrium...i forgot the name of the theory). It is according to solubility rules.

OpenStudy (maddyx):

i am sure about that. But you should look up the theory

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Chlorides, Sodium, and Nitrates are soluble. Sulfates are always insoluble.

OpenStudy (maddyx):

@jnjforever ... Right, but sulfates of ammonium, sodium and potassium are highly soluble.

thomaster (thomaster):

All sulfates are soluble except Lead, Barium, Silver, Stontium and Calcium

OpenStudy (maddyx):
