Action of Ammonium Hydroxide — on solutions of salts
Magnesium chloride | MgCl2 + 2NH4OH ⟶ 2NH4Cl + Mg(OH)2 ↓ |
Iron [II] sulphate | FeSO4 + 2NH4OH ⟶ (NH4)2SO4 + Fe(OH)2 ↓ |
Iron [III] chloride | FeCl3 + 3NH4OH ⟶ 3NH4Cl + Fe(OH)3 ↓ |
Copper [II] sulphate | CuSO4 + 2NH4OH ⟶ (NH4)2SO4 + Cu(OH)2 ↓
[Cu(OH)2 + (NH4)2SO4 + 2NH4OH [in excess] ⟶ 4H2O + [Cu(NH3)4]SO4] |
Zinc sulphate | ZnSO4 + 2NH4OH ⟶ (NH4)2SO4 + Zn(OH)2 ↓
[Zn(OH)2 +(NH4)2SO4 + 2NH4OH [in excess] ⟶ 4H2O + [Zn(NH3)4]SO4] |
Lead nitrate | Pb(NO3)2 + 2NH4OH ⟶ 2NH4NO3 + Pb(OH)2 ↓ |
