Question: Explain whether the technique errors will result in high or low experimental determination of the molar concentration of CH3COOH in vinegar. 1. A student uses the pipet bulb to blow the last bit of vinegar sample from the tip into the titration flask, after the pipet is drained. 2. A student fails to clean the pipet first, After delivering the vinegar sample, the student notices a drop of vinegar clinging to the inner surface of the pipet. 3. A student stops the titration when the pink persists throughout the solution for less than 10 seconds after completing the titration, a student notices that buret is not clean. Droplets of NaOH solution are clinging to the inner surface of the buret. Briefly explain why adding distilled water to the vinegar sample prior to the beginning titration does not affect the results of your determination of the molarity of CH3COOH in your vinegar sample.

Discuss what influence temperature has on molecular motions and how it would impact the reaction in Part II.
Part II. Temperature Dependence in a Complex Ion
EquilibriumMetal ions such as Co2+ will form complex ions, where
ligands surround the metal ion. A ligand
is either a molecule or ion that donates electron density to the
metal ion to form a bond.Examples of ligands include H2O, NH3, Cl-,
and OH-. CoCl2(H2O)2 is a complex metal ion withtwo Cl- (chloro)
and two H2O (aqua) ligands surrounding the Co2+ in a tetrahedral
geometry.Co(H2O)6
2+ is also a complex ion with six water molecules (aqua ligands) surrounding the
central metal ion, Co2+, in an octahedral geometry.
In aqueous solution, we can observe the conversion between the
tetrahedral complex ion,
CoCl2(H2O)2, which is blue, and the hydrated octahedral complex
ion, Co(H2O)6
2+, which is pink,
according to the following equilibrium.
CoCl2(H2O)2 + 4 H2O Co(H2O)6
2+ + 2 Cl-
blue pink
By dissolving CoCl2∙(H2O)6 in methanol, the solution obtained is between blue and pink.
