CSCA Chemistry Concept & Principle Guide

Concept, principle, and explanation

Conditions under which ions cannot coexist in large amounts: 1. Formation of insoluble or slightly soluble substances (e.g., Ba²⁺ and SO₄²⁻ ); 2. Formation of gases (e.g., H⁺ and CO₃²⁻ ); 3. Formation of weak electrolytes (e.g., H⁺ and OH⁻ forming H₂O ); 4. Occurrence of redox reactions (e.g., Fe³⁺ and I⁻ ).
