1). CaCl2 is dissolved in water. Which of the following is NOT one of the 3 steps involved in this solvation process.

A) Ca+2 ions surrounded by negative sides of water molecules and Cl- ions are surrounded by positive sides of water molecules

B) Solvent-solvent interactions overcome ( hydrogen bonds between water molecules break)

C) Solute-solute interactions overcome (Ca+2 and Cl- ions separate)

D) CaCl2 molecules absorb the water becoming larger molecules.
