Question
How does K2[PtCl4] get ionised when dissolved in water? Will it form a precipitate when AgNO3 solution is added to it? Give a reason for your answer.
Solution
\[\ce{K2[PtCl4] ⇌[water] 2K+ + [PtCl4]^{2-}}\]
It gives no chloride ion in solution, therefore, it will not form a precipitate with AgNO3 solution.
