Reactions with halide ions

• Chlorine with silver nitrate forms a white precipitate with is soluble in dilute ammonia(aq)
• Bromine with silver nitrate forms a cream precipitate which is slightly soluble in ammonia, and fully soluble in concentrated ammonia
• Iodine with Silver nitrate forms a yellow precipitate which is insoluble in ammonia(aq)
• Ag+(aq) + X(aq) -> AgX(s)
