PRECIPITATION: SILVER CHLORIDE BY NEUTRALIZATION<br />
(Variations Available)<br />
Formation & Reversal of a Complex Ion<br />
(right) Nitric acid is added to clear solution containing complex ion [Ag(NH3)2]+. (left) As the NH3(aq) is neutralized the formation reaction for the complex ion [Ag(NH3)2]+ is reversed, recombining Ag+ & Cl- to form AgCl(s).
