Abstract: In the course of this experiment the rate of isomerism for the coordination complex cis[Co(en)2Cl2]Cl was determined using UV/Vis spectrometry. Using a range of wavelengths the optimum spectrometer setting for analysis was identified. The corresponding maximum and minimum absorbance of the cis and trans isomers respectively at 540 nm meant that it was selected as the wavelength to determine the rate of conversion between the isomers. The first order rate constant was calculated to be 0

Assignment 4: Chapter 5 Case Study 1. Because CEOs are not just a top manager of companies‚ they also have functions like leaders and regulators. Their actions always affect the whole company culture. If they did what is wrong‚ their employees may think “if the leaders do it‚ then it’s not a wrong thing‚ and maybe I can do it as well”.
