Question

What happens when
Common salt solution is added to silver nitrate solution and NH3 solution add to it.

Short Note

Solution

Common salt solution is added to silver nitrate solution.
AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

Common salt is NaCl, in aqueous medium it ionizes to form Na+ and Cl- ions.

NaCl(aq) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Cl-(aq) + Ag+(aq) → AgCl(s)

On adding ammonia solution to it, the silver chloride gets dissolved and the following reaction occurs:

AgCl(s) + 2NH3(aq) → [Ag(NH3)2]+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
