Assume that an aqueous solution of a cation (represented as red spheres in the diagram) is allowed to mix with a solution of an anion (represented as yellow spheres). Three possible outcomes are represented by boxes (1)-(3): Which outcome corresponds to each of the following reactions? (a) $ 2 \mathrm{Na}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{CO}_{3}^{2-}(a q) \longrightarrow$ (b) $\mathrm{Ba}^{2+}(a q)+\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}(a q) \longrightarrow$ (c) $2 \mathrm{Ag}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{SO}_{3}^{2-}(a q) \longrightarrow$
Two aqueous solutions of $\mathrm{KOH}$ and $\mathrm{MgCl}_{2}$ are mixed. Which of the following diagrams best represents the mixture? For simplicity, water molecules are not shown. (Color codes are: $K^{+}=$ purple, $\left.\mathrm{OH}^{-}=\mathrm{red}, \mathrm{Mg}^{2+}=\operatorname{green}, \mathrm{Cl}^{-}=\text {orange. }\right)$
