Which action increases the solubility of AgCl in water?
A.Adding NH₃ (forms Ag(NH₃)₂⁺ complex)
B.Adding NaCl
C.Adding AgNO₃
D.Cooling the solution
Explanation
Core Concept
Ammonia ties up Ag⁺ as a complex ion, removing free silver and pulling the dissolution equilibrium forward. Complexation is a classic solubility booster.
Correct Answer
AAdding NH₃ (forms Ag(NH₃)₂⁺ complex)
