AI Generated Solution

To explain the hydrolysis of beryllium chloride (BeCl₂) and the subsequent evolution of fumes when a moist glass rod with ammonia is introduced, we can break down the process into clear steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hydrolysis of BeCl₂**: - Beryllium chloride (BeCl₂) reacts with water (H₂O) during hydrolysis. The chemical reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{BeCl}_2 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Be(OH)}_2 + 2 \text{HCl} ...
