Directions: Click the link here to access an interactive simulation where you will explore w hat happens when you change the con
centration of different ionic compounds. Complete the steps below and answer the questions. 1. Drag the concentration meter (the purple circle attached to a wire) into the water and select the solute cobalt (II) chloride (CoCl2). 2. Move the shaker continuously to add cobalt (II) chloride until the concentration is 4.330 mol/L. How would you classify this solution? 3. What happened to the color of the solution as you added more of the ionic compound? 4. Tap the faucet to add another 0.5 L of water, bringing the total volume of the solution. When you doubled the water volume, what happened to the concentration? How would you now classify this solution? 5. Complete a similar process for two other ionic compounds. Experiment with different amounts of the ionic solute and the water solvent to observe the changing concentrations.
