Cobalt does not react with water at room temperature. However, finely powdered cobalt can react with water over time to form cobalt hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Alkali metals react with ammonia liquid to form metal amides and ammoniated electrons. These ammoniated electrons are responsible for absorbing energy from visible light, leading to a deep blue color in the solution. This phenomenon is known as charge transfer complexes.
Cobalt (II) chloride dihydrated (purple colour) and with more water Cobalt (II) chloride hexahydrated (pink colour) .
Cobalt itself does not react with water. However, when submerged in water, cobalt can undergo oxidation reactions which might produce cobalt hydroxide, resembling a blue powder, and hydrogen gas.
Yes, cobalt chloride and lead nitrate can react to form cobalt nitrate and lead chloride. This reaction involves a double displacement reaction where the ions switch partners.

Yes ammonia can react with aluminum oxide. Aluminum oxide is ampoteric, that is, it shows both acidic and basic characters. Ammonia is basic in nature, so there will be a reaction between acidic and basic chemicals.

Radioactive or not, pure cobalt is a gray metal.
Cobalt nitrate typically appears as a reddish-violet to pink solid when hydrated and as a cobalt blue solid when anhydrous.
Cobalt itself does not react with water. However, when submerged in water, cobalt can undergo oxidation reactions which might produce cobalt hydroxide, resembling a blue powder, and hydrogen gas.
The balanced equation for the reaction between cobalt chloride (CoCl2) and ammonia (NH3) would be: CoCl2 + 6NH3 → [Co(NH3)6]Cl2
Aqueous ammonia is colorless.
Red cobalt
It is colorless.
