Ionic bonding - understand the relationship between: (1) melting point and ion size (2) melting point and charge difference [see previous post for a link]
Solubility:
-if it dissolves in water, it is polar, thus possesses LD & DD (maybe even HB)
-if it does not dissolve, it is nonpolar, thus possesses only LD (no DD/HB of any significance)
Consider the following links for some alcohol solubility information

This next one discusses solubility much further down the "page", though the initial information fits in nicely with the next organic functional group...

Question: Why do white bears dissolve in water? Answer: Because they are polar.
