Chemically most carbonates are insoluble (Do not dissolve in water).
The exception are the carbonates of Group(I) Alkali metals e.g. Sodium.
Similarly, most sulphates.
However, Chlorides and nitrates are soluble.

Is magnesium carbonate soluble?
Yes magnesium carbonate is a salt that does not dissolve in water.
Will powdered chalk dissolve?
Calcium carbonate is insoluble in water.
How would a dry sample of sodium carbonate be obtained from a mixture of sodium carbonate and calcium carbonate?
Calcium carbonate is not soluble in water, sodium carbonate is soluble in water. Dissolve the mixture and filter: the Na2CO3 pass the filter as a solution and CaCO3 remain on the filter. Gently warm the solution to obtain crystallized sodium carbonate.
Is chalk soluble in COLD water?
No, it is not. Chalk is calcite - calcium carbonate (CaCO3), and it won't dissolve in water.
Is carbonate solid or aqueous?
'Carbonate' is the anion to a solid salt. Common carbonates are are ; Sodium Carbonate, Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium carbonate. These salts are solids are room temperature. They are all found in nature as solids. They all react with acids to form another salt, plus, water, plus carbon dioxide. e.g. Hydrochloric acid + Sodium carbonate produces sodium chloride, water and carbon dioxide. 2HCl + Na2CO3 = 2NaCl + H2O + CO2
Is magnesium carbonate soluble?
Yes magnesium carbonate is a salt that does not dissolve in water.
How do you separate magnesium carbonate from a solution of magnesium carbonate and sodium carbonate?
First of all, since Magnesium Carbonate is not Soluble in water you couldn't have a solution of these two salts in water. But if you had a mixture of the two in powdered form and need to separate them simply dissolve what you can in water, the part that wont dissolve is the magnesium carbonate and you could them filter it out and let the solution of sodium carbonate dry out and there you have the two separated.
Why do all ionic compounds dissolve in water?
Many ionic compounds do NOT dissolve in water- such as calcium carbonate. The majority do and that is because the solvation of the ions is energetically favourable in those compounds.
How sodium carbonate prepare?
Dissolve 53 g sodium carbonate in 1 kg of water.
Will powdered chalk dissolve?
Calcium carbonate is insoluble in water.
Why is it important to add sodium chloridne to water when making homemade ice cream?
If you add calcium carbonate to 100g of water at 25oC, only 0.0014g of it will dissolve. Additional calcium carbonate will not dissolve.
Can vinegar dissolve rocks?
Calcium acetate is reasonably soluble in water, so vinegar will dissolve limestone (calcium carbonate).
What 2 materials dissolve in hot water minerals?
Calcium chloride and sodium carbonate are soluble in water.
Is there any base that does not dissolve in water?
Yes, there are many insoluble bases such as calcium carbonate.
How do you prepare 50 percent solution of potassium carbonate?
Dissolve 50 g of potassium carbonate in 100 mL of water at 20 0C.
Compound X is unknown Compound X does not dissolve in water does not react with water and is used to control soil acidity what is compound X?
Yes, it is the ammonium hydroxide - NH4OH.
Will calcium carbonate be dissolve in sodium chloride?
No, it wont dissolve.
