Is CO3 soluble?

Calcium carbonate is very poorly soluble in water. At 25 deg. Celsius, its Ksp value is 2.8x10-9. This means the concentration of each ion in solution at equilibrium would be the square root of this number, which is about 5.3x10-5, or 0.000053M.


What does it mean to say that two materials are infinitely soluble in each other?

A solute that has no practical point of saturation in a given solvent is said to be infinitely soluble in that solvent. Ethanol, for example, is infinitely soluble in water.

How do i know when a formula is soluble?

You can determine whether a formula is soluble by referencing solubility rules. These rules provide guidelines on how different ions combine and react with each other in solution. If a combination of ions in a formula follows the solubility rules, then the formula is soluble. If it violates the solubility rules, the formula is insoluble.


Is toluene and benzene are soluble?

Yes. Toluene and benzene are each soluble in the other. Neither is soluble in water.


Is heptane soluble in water and why?

No hexane is insoluble in water. "Like dissolves like" meaning the more alike (chemically) two things are the more likely they will be soluble in each other. Hexane and water are just chemically too different. Hexane has a very low solubility in water, just a few mg/l. For most purposes it can be considered insoluble. However in one very important aspect it must not be considered insoluble. The vapour pressure of hexane above water containing just a few mg/l is as great as above pure hexane and can lead to explosive atmospheres.


What is the states of each compound in CuSO4 plus 2KOH -- Cu(OH)2 plus K2SO4?

CuSO4 + 2 KOH = Cu(OH)2(s) + K2SO4Only copper hydroxide is insoluble in water; other compounds are soluble in water.


Will copper float in mercury?

To answer this question, you really need to know which anions are being used with these metals. To predict precipitates, you must know all the different ions and how they can combine. A precipitate will form when a pair of the possible combinations is not soluble. Some mercury salts are soluble and others are not, but mercury salts are not typically very soluble. Similarly, some copper salts are soluble, others are not, but they tend to be more soluble than mercury salts. So if you add two soluble copper and mercury salts together, there is a good chance that you will form a new INSOLUBLE mercury salt, and this will come out as a precipitate. Let me give an example. If you have copper(II) chloride (CuCl2) and you mix it with mercury(I) nitrate (HgNO3), both of which are soluble, then you will have the following ions floating around in solution: Cu2+, Cl-, Hg+, and NO3-. However, it turns out that HgCl is an insoluble compound. So each time these two ions bump into each other in the solution, they will form a precipitate due to the insolubility. However, both CuCl2 and Cu(NO3)2 are soluble, and so they will not precipitate. If instead you did the same thing but now used Cu(NO3)2 and Hg2SO4, no precipitate would form because both of those are soluble, and also so are CuSO4 and HgNO3. See the Web Links to the left of this answer for a table of solubilities.


Why is buckminsterfullerene more soluble than diamond?

Carbon in diamond is sp3 hybridized. Every carbon atom is cross-linked in a covalent network. Carbon in fullerenes in sp2 hybridized. The individual buckyballs are soluble as they are not covalently linked to each other. The old axiom of like dissolves like holds. C60 is soluble in a number of nonpolar solvents, such as benzene, toluene, or chloroform.


Is nail polish insoluble in water?

Nail polish is not insoluble in water. This is because the solute particles in ethylethanoate separate from each other and mix with the solvent.
