When cobalt chloride is added to pure water, the Co2* ions hydrate. The hydrated form then reacts with the CI" ions to set up the equilibrium shown here: Co(H20)62+ + 4CI CoCl42- + 6H20 (blue) Which statement describes the change that the system will undergo if potassium (pink) chloride is added? O It should become more pink. Nothing will change. The silver ion will react with the CoCla2-. Water will be produced. It should become more blue.
