HW - 17.31 - b

b) asks to give the formula for : pentaammine-sulfato-colbalt (III)- chloride

In the formula and bracket colbalt goes first, however I was wondering if it mattered if the amine group or sulfate was written first in the formula; so if it matters if (NH3)5 goes before (SO4) or vice versa.
