Solubility Rules (Call Me Maybe Parody)

Lyrics:

All compounds of group 1 elements
Are soluble
Man they're heaven sent

All ammonium salts that's NH4+
Are soluble
Makes me want some more

All nitrates, chlorates, perchlorates, and even acetates
Salts are soluble that's crazy!

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

All chloride, bromide, ---and iodide
Salts are soluble
Its like I'm on a fun slide

Some exceptions OMG
Silver, lead, Mercury
They don't want to be free
Their insoluble

All sulfates soluble
Barium, strontium,
Calcium, lead and mercury
Are insoluble baby!

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

All hydroxide compounds are insoluble oh yea
they're insoluble oh yea they're insoluble oh oh yea

Don't forget barium, strontium, and calcium
They're soluble oh yea
They're soluble oh oh yea

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

Hey Chemistry is fun
Practice daily
Read your textbook
And get an A maybe

This is solubility
It's so crazy
Don't be a fool
And follow these rules

Sulfide compounds are insoluble
Except groups 1 and 2
Alkali Metals and Alkali Earth Metals

Sulfites, carbonates, chromates, phosphates
Are insoluble
Not Ammonium and those Alkali metals

All sulfate ( SO4=) compounds are soluble except those of Ba2+, Sr2+, Ca2+, Pb2+, Hg22+, and Hg2+, Ca2+ and Ag+ sulfates are only moderately soluble.

All hydroxide (OH-) compounds are insoluble except those of Group I-A (alkali metals) and Ba2+, Ca2+, and Sr2+.

thats why there seems to be a repeat

My chemistry teacher plays us this song at the beginning of class.

[inertialobserver]

Memorizing solubility rules isn't required for my class, but learning the salts is - and this helps me understand both salts and their relation to solubility better than the chart we're given in class.

[nicolasestrada]

You are a goddess!!!! Thank you so much :) nothing else was sticking I may actually pass my test now

[angelar]

this is really good i love this song a lot 🦵🦵🦵🦵

[dancelover]

listening to this so its in my head while taking the ap test in less than 10 hours!!

[abbylopez]

"barium, strontium, calcium, lead and mercury are insoluble baby!"
"don't forget barium, strontium, and calcium they're soluble oh yea!"
which is it? soluble or insoluble?

[TariqKhan-nkrb]

Bro what ?, at first you said barium and strontium are insoluble and then later you said they are soluble ? Someone explain?

[teresiaa_]

wow, thanks to you i can understand it now! it was brilliant👏👏👏

[dittoma]

Admittedly, I'd much rather have an auto-tuned version than one of the REALLY terrible attempts other channels do to sing.
I admire their commitment, but god damn if it doesn't hurt.
If you want to teach via a song, the song HAS to be pleasant, otherwise you won't listen!!!





Apart from the exception that annoying songs get stuck in your head, but that's when the lyrics are cringe-y and your Chemistry teacher plays the song over and over again, rather than having normal lyrics sound like fingers down a chalkboard!!!
