Question

You are supervising a group of high school students and gave them an experiment about the colors of transition metal complexes, especially Cobalt. However, upon the preparation of the solutions, the students forgot to label the colored solutions. As the supervisor, you should be furious but knowing that these are high school students you contemplated scolding them. With your knowledge in coordination chemistry, help these students label the solutions.

The following compounds were synthesized: Hexacyanocobaltate(III); Tricarbonatocobaltate(III); Triglycinatocobalt(III); Tris(ethylenediammine)cobalt(III); Hexaamminecobalt(III); Hexanitrocobaltate(III); Tris(1,10-phenanthroline)cobalt(III); Trioxalatocobaltate(III); and Hexaaquacobalt(III).

*The solutions in the volumetric flasks are emerald green, pale yellow, teal, purple, light yellow, blue, yellow, orange, and dark yellow.
