    1.   Group 1A & Ammonium (the only cations in this list)           b.       NO3-, ClO4-, ClO3-, CH3CO2-

      Can you go over these again tomorrow I'm still getting confused on finding which ones are soluble and which ones are not

    2. When trying to predict if any (s) form from multiple solutions mixed together, draw a matrix and use the solubility rules to cancel out all the (aq).

      When you write the equation do you write all of the one's that are precipitates on the right side of the arrow. How do you write the equation to this?

    3. Pure water does not conduct electricity, and it has been observed that when a substance dissolves in water, it may produce mobile ions that allow the water to conduct electricity, and we call that compound an electrolyte, or it may not, in which case we call it a nonelectrolyte.  

      For these water compounds to conduct electricity does there have to be an existing electrical current touching the water or will the compound create electricity when you mix one of these salts or acids with water? I hope this makes sense.

    1. 3.5: Acid-Base Reactions

      Ok, so for this section, I think that I pretty well understand what it is that we are supposed to be doing, like looking at the reactions. But I am having trouble understanding how to know if an acid or a base is considered weak or strong. Is there a list that we are supposed to memorize? Or is there some sort of formula for figuring this out?

    1. Pb+2(aq)+ 2 NO3-(aq) + 2 Na+(aq)+ SO4-2(aq) 2 NO3-(aq)+ 2Na+(aq)+ PbSO4(s)

      I am confused. There are ions on both sides of this equation, and I thought that the point was to eliminate those and only look at the reactive ions.
