1. Draw
the two geometrical isomers of chloroaquotetrammine cobalt (II)
chloride.
2. Draw
the structure of the carmine-red carbonatotetrammine cobalt (III)
chloride.
3. Can you
suggest why your product is predominantly the cis
isomer?
4. In this
compound do the chloride ions have different roles? How could their
positions in the molecule be investigated by chemical
means?
5. Your
product may be contaminated with small amounts of [Co(NH3)4Cl2]Cl
(green crystals) and [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 (purple). Draw these compounds
and any isomers which can exist.
