(a)
Interpretation:
A diagram for a formula unit of cobalt(II) sulfate,
Concept introduction:
Dissolution is the process of making a solution of a solid substance. The solid dissolve by breaking into its molecules and solvent particles surround them due to forces of attraction between the solid and solvent.

- Distinguish between the solute and solvent in each of the following solutions: a saltwater [NaCl(aq)]; b sterling silver (92.5%Ag,7.5%Cu); c air about 80%N2,20%O2. On what do you base your distinctions? Sterling silver is an alloy of 92.5 silver and 7.5 another metal, usually copper.arrow_forwardA student weighs out a 4.80-g sample of aluminum bromide, transfers it to a 100-mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 100-mL mark. What is the molarity of aluminum bromide in the resulting solution?arrow_forward
