Reactions of the hexaaqua ions with ammonia solution are complicated by the fact that the ammonia can have two quite different functions. It will probably be easiest to return to this page via the complex ions menu. The present page draws information from all of these pages, and you will find it easier to understand if you spend some time reading these other pages first.

It would also be useful to read two more pages: the one describing the reactions of these ions with hydroxide ions, and the one explaining ligand exchange reactions. Important: Before you read this page, you need to know about the acidity of the hexaaqua ions. This page describes and explains the reactions between complex ions of the type n+ and ammonia solution.
