Assume that you have a solution of blue Cu2+ bound by water. You want to determine both the rate at which green CuCl2 is produced and the equilibrium constant between these two salts of copper(II) Please provide an outline of the experiment that you could perform to determine these values. Provide experimental steps in your outline, but describing exact volumes or quantities of chemicals is not necessary.
