Interpretation: The concentration of ammonia for the given conditions of complex ions needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The coordination complexes and complex ions are formed by the combination of metal ion and ligands. Here, ligands are the electron donating atoms or molecules. Therefore, ligands form coordinate bond with metal ion. The stability of coordination complexes can be determined in terms of their formation constant. It is represented as Kf. It is the ratio of product and reactant at equilibrium condition of formation of coordinate complex.
