<span>Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.</span>
Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.
Work:
1) Unbalanced chemical equation (given):
<span>Co + AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + Ag
2) Balanced chemical equation
</span>
<span>Co + 2AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + 2Ag
3) mole ratios
1 mol Co : 2 mole AgNO3 : 1 mol Co(NO3)2 : 2 mol Ag
4) Convert the masses in grams of the reactants into number of moles
4.1) 5.85 grams of Co
# moles = mass in grams / atomic mass
atomic mass of Co = 58.933 g/mol
# moles Co = 5.85 g / 58.933 g/mol = 0.0993 mol
4.2) 15.8 grams of Ag(NO3)
# moles Ag(NO3) = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass AgNO3 = 169.87 g/mol
# moles Ag(NO3) = 15.8 g / 169.87 g/mol = 0.0930 mol
5) Limiting reactant
Given the mole ratio 1 mol Co : 2 mol Ag(NO3) you can conclude that there is not enough Ag(NO3) to make all the Co react.
That means that Ag(NO3) is the limiting reactant, which means that it will be consumed completely, whilce Co is the excess reactant.
6) Product formed.
Use this proportion:
2 mol Ag(NO3) 0.0930mol Ag(NO3)
--------------------- = ---------------------------
2 mol Ag x
=> x = 0.0930 mol
Convert 0.0930 mol Ag to grams:
mass Ag = # moles * atomic mass = 0.0930 mol * 107.868 g/mol = 10.03 g
Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.
6) Excess reactant left over
1 mol Co x
----------------------- = ----------------------------
2 mole Ag(NO3) 0.0930 mol Ag(NO3)
=> x = 0.0930 / 2 mol Co = 0.0465 mol Co reacted
Excess = 0.0993 mol - 0.0465 mol = 0.0528 mol
Convert to grams:
0.0528 mol * 58.933 g/mol = 3.11 g
Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.

Answer:
The atmosphere, I believe.
Explanation:
The three situations can be described as
a) If we have two white powders and wish to distinguish between the two : the combinations can be sugar / salt or sugar / baking soda or salt / baking soda
all are kitchen items so we can either taste them
or in case of baking soda we can add it in water and it will produce brisk effervescence.
b) IF we have to distinguish in a given set of two transparent liquids which appear to be water (example water and vinegar)
we can identify them with the taste
we can identify them based on pH (vinegar will be acidic)
c) We have to find adulteration in a given sample of food
like adulteration in milk
for example presence of soap in milk
We can add indicator like phenolphthalein which will bring a pink colour in milk if soap is present
Hypochlorous acid is a weak acid. The
value for the dissociation of HOCl is 
Atoms. Well, they can be broken down, but that won't happen that fast.
