    I don't have any rhymes or quotes but the only way I learned them was literally on a sheet of people writing down the anion on the left hand side and then literally just writing the needed chemicals and colour it turns

    e.g.

    Cl- : AgNO3 ... White Precipitate

    and so on..
    Even at that they're a terror but you'll have to write them out again and again

    Pretty sure someone told me this one before; it's a little fairy tale to remember one...
    The Princess Chlorine was trapped in solution. Suddenly her Silver Knight(rate) came along to release her (and the precipitate is formed).
    I'm sure there were more but I can only think of this little story :P
