Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
AgCl on adding to a solution of `NH_4OH` solution dissolves to form a complex diamine silver chloride.
`AgCl + 2NH_4 OH to Ag (NH_2)_2 Cl + 2H_2O`
Therefore, both assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of assertion.
