HL Solubility

The Solubility of an ionic compound is determined by the lattice enthalpy and the enthalpy of hydration. It can be shown through a Hess' Cycle
Factors that impact solubility:

Lattice Enthalpy- Increases as size decreases
Hydration Enthalpy- Increases as charge increases and size decreases
