The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.

Potassium carbonate is the inorganic compound with the formula K 2 C O 3.It is a white salt, which is soluble in water and forms a strongly alkaline solution. It is deliquescent, often appearing as a damp or wet solid.
Potassium chloride is inexpensively available and is rarely prepared intentionally in the laboratory. It can be generated by treating potassium hydroxide (or other potassium bases) with hydrochloric acid: KOH + HCl → KCl + H 2 O. This conversion is an acid-base neutralization reaction. The resulting salt can then be purified by recrystallization.
At higher temperatures, solid KOH crystallizes in the NaCl crystal structure. The OH − group is either rapidly or randomly disordered so that it is effectively a spherical anion of radius 1.53 Å (between Cl − and F − in size).
KOH is a strong base. Illustrating its hydrophilic character, as much as 1.21 kg of KOH can dissolve in a single liter of water. [26] [27] Anhydrous KOH is rarely encountered. KOH reacts readily with carbon dioxide (CO 2) to produce potassium carbonate (K 2 CO 3), and in principle could be used
The ionic strength of a solution is a measure of the concentration of ions in that solution. Ionic compounds, when dissolved in water, dissociate into ions. The total electrolyte concentration in solution will affect important properties such as the dissociation constant or the solubility of different salts. One of the main characteristics of a ...
The "size" of the charge in an ionic bond depends on the number of electrons transferred. An aluminum atom, for example, with a +3 charge has a relatively large positive charge. That positive charge then exerts an attractive force on the electron cloud of the other ion, which has accepted the electrons from the aluminum (or other) positive ion.
