4. Study the passage below

A crystalline solid A dissolves in water to give a solution containing the metal complex

ion B.

Addition of aqueous silver nitrate to this solution gives a white precipitate of C which dissolves

when an excess of dilute aqueous ammonia is added to form a solution containing the metal

complex ion D.

The solution of A becomes a blue solution containing metal complex ion E when an excess of

concentrated hydrochloric acid is added.

When concentrated aqueous ammonia is added dropwise to a solution of A, a blue-green

precipitate F forms. This then dissolves when an excess of ammonia is added to form a pale

brown solution containing the metal complex ion G. This pale brown solution becomes dark

brown on standing in air and a solution containing the metal complex ion H is formed.
