  Cobaltous \Co*balt"ous\, a. (Chem.)
     Pertaining to, derived from, or containing, cobalt; -- said
     esp. of cobalt compounds in which the metal has its lower

     [1913 Webster]
  


     {Cobaltous chloride}, a crystalline compound, {CoCl2}, of a
        pale rose color when hydrous, blue when dehydrated. Its
        solution is used for a sympathetic ink, the writing being
        nearly colorless when dried in the air, owing to absorbed
        moisture, and becoming bright blue when warmed.
