Can you explain the major differences in the synthesis of Pentaammineaquacobalt(III) chloride and pentaamminechlorocobalt(III) chloride? The same reagents are used, but in different order. (NH3, NH4Cl, H2O2, CoCl2•6H2O ) Also, one synthesis involves heat and the other doesn't. Can you explain what is happening in the synthesis of each, and why the order makes a difference?
