The rate of reduction of [co(nh3)5(h2o)]3 by [cr(h2o)6] 2 is seven orders of magnitude slower than reduction of its conjugate base, [co(nh3)5(oh)]2 . for the corresponding reductions with [ru(nh3)6] 2 instead of [cr(h2o)6] 2 as the oxidant, the two reactions differ by less than a factor of 10. what do these observation suggest about the mechanisms in reductions by [cr(h2o)6] 2 and [ru(nh3)6] 2 , respectively

the answer is b. dilution

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
