• It is highly soluble because all hydroxides are soluble

• It is insoluble because all calcium compounds are insoluble

• It is slightly soluble because most hydroxides are insoluble except those of alkali metals and some alkaline earth metals

• It is highly soluble because all alkaline earth metal hydroxides are soluble

• Solubility will decrease, because most salts are less soluble at higher temperatures

• Solubility will increase, because most solid salts are more soluble at higher temperatures

• Solubility will not change, because temperature does not affect solubility

• Solubility will decrease, because potassium salts are always insoluble
