EXPERIMENT 1
---------------
Dichromate/chromic acid is reduced by malic acid and in this reaction an
intensely colored purple complex of chromium(III) is formed. If the reaction is
performed in the presence of an excess amount of strong non-coordinating acid,
then the reaction proceeds faster, and also a purple complex is formed, but the
color is much less intense.
Without the extra acid, there really is a new complex with chromium(III). This
complex reacts with ammonia, giving a nice green solution.
