[Co(H2O)6]2+ (aq) (pink) +
4Cl– (aq) ⇌ [CoCl4]2–
(aq) (blue)+ 6 H2O (l)
on cooling, reverse reaction predominates and the solution
is pink in colour.
∴ decrease
in temperature, favours the reverse reaction ie reverse reaction is exothermic
and for the forward reaction is endothermic (ΔH > 0)

Ba (OH)2 dissociates to form
Ba2+ and 2OH ion
α=(i-1) / (n-1)
i= α(n-1)+1
n=i=3 (for Ba(OH)2),
α =1)
Co2 - Linear
C2H2 - Linar
