Consider the insoluble compound silver chloride, AgCl. The silver ion also forms a complex with cyanide ions. Write a balanced net ionic equation to show why the solubility of AgCl (s) increases in the presence of cyanide ions and calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction. For Ag(CN)₂, Kf = 5.6x10¹8. Be sure to specify states such as (aq) or (s). K = + +
