• B)Water can more readily separate and hydrate highly charged ions in ionic solids than ions with smaller charges.
• C)Ionic compounds with very large negative lattice energies typically show limited solubility in water.
• D)Al₂O₃ is probably less soluble in water than Na₂O in part because its lattice energy is more negative.
