Draw the submicroscopic representation of an ionic solid (tilde 9 particles), along with the hydrated ions when dissolved in water (1 of each ion, 4 water molecules around each ion). What interactions hold the ions together in the ionic solid? ________________________ What interactions keep ions apart in an aqueous solution? __________________________ Explain how increasing temperature would affect the solubility of the two compounds above. Comment on whether the ion-ion forces (ionic interactions) are stronger than the ion-dipole forces (hydration interactions) for Li_2CO_3 and K_2CO_3, when each is dissolved in water. Explain why Li_2CO_3 is less soluble than K_2CO_3. Mention physical differences between Li^+ and K^+, and how that affects the number of configurations when each ion is dissolved in water.
