Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.92P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for calcium carbonate to be insoluble in water needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic force of attraction between positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are composed of ions, but the overall charge is zero. The ions are combined in such a way that a positive charge is equal to the negative charge. Mostly, ionic compounds are soluble in water, but temperature plays an important role in determining the solubility of ionic compounds in water. On increasing temperature, the solubility of ionic compounds in water increases.
