Solubility+Rules

__**Solubility Rules**__ //Unfortunately, the AP Chem student is required to memorize the basic solubility rules. This can seem like a daunting task, but it is possible!//
 * 1) The easiest way to remember basic solubility rules is to create a mnemonic to help you remember which compounds are soluble and which are not.

__Examples for solubility:__ - "Not All Attractive Fun Cheerleaders Buy Indecent Skirts" (N = nitrates, A = acetates, A = ammonium, F = fluorides, C = chlorides, B = bromides, I = iodides, S = sulfates). - CASH n Gia (C= chlorates, A=acetates, S=sulfates, H=halogens, n= nitrates, and Gia is Group IA metals). If its not part of CASHnGia, it's not soluble

__Examples for Exceptions__ - HAP, or Hg, Ag, and Pb (Chlorides have exceptions of mercury one, silver, or lead.)

2. Another way to remember the rules is to refer to the "99 Bottles of Pop on the Wall" song that Mr. Williams provides.
