So I used the TPR science workbook and I looked at their solubility rules, and although it is accurate, it is a shorthand version of all the long and tedious solubility rules. For the MCAT (im a re-taker) on practice tests and the actual exam, I've seen some problems which require a more in depth knowledge of the solubility rules than those provided in the TPR. Yes, I know the MCAT tests BASIC knowledge but is there a more detailed version of the solubility rules that I should have memorized.
TPRs say that
1. All group I metals and NH4 salts are soluble
2. All acetates (CH3COO-), nitrates (NO3-) and perchlorates (ClO4-) are soluble
3. All silver (Ag), lead (Pb), and mercury (Hg) salts are insoluble EXCEPT if they are with the acetate, nitrate, or perchlorate.
will this suffice? can anyone provide a more adequate set of rules?
