Title: The pink and blue species below form a violet colored mixture at equilibrium:[Co(H2O)6]2+ (aq) + 4 C
Post by: Whelan on May 6, 2015
The pink and blue species below form a violet colored mixture at equilibrium:

   [Co(H2O)6]2+ (aq) + 4 Cl- (aq) <-- --> [CoCl4]2- (aq) + 6 H2O (l)
   (pink)   (blue)

If the concentration of [Co(H2O)6]2+ is increased, what happens to the solution?
A) The concentration of [CoCl4]2- increases.
B) The concentration of [CoCl4]2- decreases.
C) The solution becomes colorless.
D) No color change is observed.
