Question

Silver chloride dissolves in excess of ammonium hydroxide solution. The cation present in the resulting solution is
(A) \(\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{6}\right]^{+}\)
(B) \(\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4}\right]^{+}\)
(C) \(\mathrm{Ag}^{+}\)
(D) \(\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{2}\right]^{+}\)

Answer 1

Ans: (D)
 \(\mathrm{AgCl}+2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{aq}) \rightarrow\left[\mathrm{Ag}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{2}\right]^{+}+\mathrm{Cl}^{-}\)
