Answer:

NH3(aq)

Explanation:

Gold III hydroxide is an inorganic compound also known as auric acid. It can be dehydrated at about 140°C to yield gold III oxide. Gold III hydroxide is found to form precipitates in alkaline solutions hence it is not soluble in calcium hydroxide.

However, gold III hydroxide forms an inorganic complex with ammonia which makes the insoluble gold III hydroxide to dissolve in ammonia solution. The equation of this complex formation is shown below;

Au(OH)3(s) + 4 NH3(aq) -------> [Au(NH3)4]^3+(aq) + 3OH^-(aq)

Hence the formation of a tetra amine complex of gold III will lead to the dissolution of gold III hydroxide solid in aqueous ammonia.

Why do you elements in the same group have similar properties
lozanna [386]

Answer:

They have similar properties, because they share similar amounts of electrons in their outer shell, valence electrons! This means they will only be able to interact with other elements with those electrons so they often show similar properties.

In which of these samples do the atoms have the least kinetic energy? bromine gas (75°C) bromine gas (60°C) liquid bromine (45°C
horrorfan [7]
Gases have high kinetic energy: the molecules are moving much more than in a liquid or solid. You can cut out A and B. In the liquids, the difference is temperature. If a lower temperature is closer to being solid, and a solid has lower kinetic energy than a liquid, then C is the answer. Hope this helps.
