When tert-butanol is placed in the presence of excess equimolar amounts of chloride and bromide ions in aqueous acid experimental data indicates 45% tert-butyl chloride and 55% tert-butyl bromide is obtained. On the other hand, when n-butanol is placed in the presence of excess equimolar amounts of chloride and bromide ions in aqueous acid experimental data indicates 16% of n-butyl chloride and 84% n-butyl bromide is obtained. Now when n-butanol is placed in the presence of excess equimolar amounts of chloride ions and bromide ions in acid dimethyl sulfoxide the experimental data provides an 84% n-butyl chloride and 16% n-butyl bromide as the outcome.

1. Add 0.5 mL of 0.10 M NiCl2 solution to each of 7 test tubes using dropper provided. Label these tubes 1 through 7. 2. Add the following to the respective tubes containing the NiCl2 solution,
Tube 1: 5 drops of water (used here as a control experiment for dilution)
Tube 2: 1 mL of conc. HCl
Tube 3: 5 drops of conc. ammonia
Tube 4: 5 drops of dilute (5% v/v) ethylenediamine solution
Tube 5: 5 drops of 0.25 M C2O4 2- (oxalate) solution
Tube 6: 5 drops of 0.1 M SCN- (thiocyanate) solution
Tube 7: 5 drops of 0.1 M EDTA solution Mix each solution thoroughly and be sure to note the colour of each tube.
3. Check the stability of each complex by adding 3-5 drops of 1 M NaOH solution. Note any changes (e.g., formation of precipitate, colour change, etc.)
4. Add 0.5 mL of 0.10 M CuSO4 solution to each of 7 new test tubes labeled 8 through 14 using dropper provided. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
The “field strength” of a ligand describes how strong the coordination bond is, for a given metal and the ligand that is considered. The field strength is evaluated by considering how much it causes the d orbitals to split (DE), which of the ligands is strongest? Which is the weakest? Explain your choices in each case.
