Sodium sulfate is highly soluble in water, but insoluble in most organic solvents. If you want to increase its solubility in water (as for any salt), you can heat the solution or remove one of the products (sodium ions or sulfate ions) from solution. I can't think of any insoluble sodium salts, but barium sulfate (BaSO4) is insoluble in water. Thus, adding barium chloride (or some other soluble barium salt) will remove sulfate from the equilibrium (due to BaSO4 precipitation) and increase the solubility of sodium sulfate.

Why does Sodium methyl sulfate make poor detergents?
Sodium methyl has a very low water solubility.
Sodium sulfate formula?
The chemical formula of sodium sulfate is Na2SO4.
What is the name for compound Na2SO4?
Na2SO4 is sodium sulfate sometimes called disodium sulfate. Sodium sulfate from a natural source is known as thenardate and was formerly called Glauber's Salt.
What is the name of NaHSO4 H2O?
The preferred modern name for the compound with the formula NaHSO4.H2O is "sodium acid sulfate monohydrate". This compound was formerly called "sodium bisulfate monohydrate", and some chemists still use the older name.
Solubility of sodium iodide in water?
Sodium iodide is very soluble solubility product of NaI2 is 184
How temperature affects the solubility of sodium sulfate?
As temperature increase the solubility of sodium sulfate decrease
What is the solubility of sodium sulfate in ethanol?
Sodium sulfate is not soluble in ethanol.
What is the solubility of sodium sulfate and water?
It is soluble in water.
What is the most concentrated solution of sodium sulfate Na2SO4?
At 20 oC the maximal solubility of sodium sulfate is 40,8 g/L.
Why does Sodium methyl sulfate make poor detergents?
Sodium methyl has a very low water solubility.
What happens to the solubility of a sodium nitrate as the temperature increases'?
When the temperature increase the solubility also increase.
Is sodium sulfate soluble or insoluble in water?
No because the water has lost his solubility
How will the solubility of anhydrous sodium sulfate vary with temperature?
Sodium sulfate is unusual in that its solubility becomes largely independent of temp at 49.7 °C( meaning instead of increasing solubility as temp rises it forms a plateau and actually decreases slightly) See the Web Links to the left of this answer for a direct link to a graph of the solubility vs. temperature, as described above.
Sodium sulfate and hydrochloric acid soluble or insoluble physical or chemical?
Sodium sulfate is soluble in water. Hydrochloric acid is a water solution of HCl. Solubility is considered a physical property.
Why does strontium sulfate becomes less soluble in an aqueous solution when sodium sulfate is added?
Sodium sulphate increases the concentration of sulphate ions. So strontium sulphate solubility decreases.
Does the solubility increase as the temperature increases?
Perhaps you mean the solubility of substances in water. Most solids have increasing solubility in water with increase in temperature, but certainly not all of them. Some solids e.g. Cerium Sulphate have decreased solubility in water at higher temperatures, while some solids show increasing solubility up to a certain temperature, above which the solubility decreases, such as Sodium Sulphate. The solubility of common salt, Sodium Chloride, is almost unaffected by temperature. Gases generally have lower solubility in water at higher temperatures.
How does the solubility of salt change with temperature?
As the temperature increases, the solubility of salt (sodium chloride) will increase. At 20 degrees C, the solubility of sodium chloride is 35.76g/100mL water and at 100 degrees C, the solubility is 39.1g/100mL water. Refer to the related links for more information.
