Question

when ammonium hydroxide is added to a solution of ferric chloride brown ppt of ferric hydroxide is formed along with ammonium chlorie

Answer 1

6nh4oh+2fecl3-------->2fe(oh)3+6nh4cl

Answer 2

Explanation:

When ammonium hydroxide is added to solution of ferric chloride then it results in the formation of ferric hydroxide and ammonium chloride.

The chemical reaction equation for this reaction will be as follows.

   $6NH_{4}OH + 2FeCl_{3} \rightarrow 2Fe(OH)_{3} + 6NH_{4}Cl$

This reaction is a double displacement reaction as there is exchange in ions of two different compounds.
