[Co(H2O)6]3+ammonium cobalt alum (NH4)Al(SO4)2·12H2Ocesium cobalt alum CsCo(SO4)2·12H2Ohexaaquacobalt(III)oxidation with hydrogen peroxide
The demonstration experiment describes the isolation of [Co(H 2 O) 6 ] 3+ both as the pure blue crystalline cesium cobalt alum, CsCo(SO 4 ) 2 ·12H 2 O, and as a light greenish-blue solid solution of ammonium cobalt alum in (NH 4 )Al(SO 4 ) 2 ·12H 2 O. The hexaaquacobalt(III) ion is prepared chemically by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, taking advantage of the stabilization of Co III relative to Co II by complexation with the carbonate ligand. A brief description of alum structure and a characterization of alum subclasses are included.
