Question

Identify the acid which matches the following description $(i)$ to $(v)$ .
The acid on mixing with silver nitrate solution produces a white precipitate which is soluble in excess ammonium hydroxide.

Open in App

Solution

Hydrochloric acid reacts with silver nitrate solution to form white precipitate of silver chloride.
$A g N O_{3} + H C l \to A g C l + H N O_{3}$
This silver chloride is soluble in excess of ammonium hydroxide but are insoluble in dilute $H N O_{3}$ .
$A g C l + 2 N H_{4} O H \to A g (N H_{3})_{2} C l + 2 H_{2} O$
