4. When sodium chloride, NaCl, is added to a solution of silver nitrate, AgNO3, a white precipitate of silver chloride, AgCl, forms. If concentrated ammonia, NH3, is added to this precipitate, a clear colorless solution forms containing diamminesilver(1) ions, [Ag(NH3)21. Potassium bromide, KBr, solution added to this colorless solution will cause pale yellow silver bromide, AgBr, to precipitate. List the species, CI, NH3, or Br in order of decreasing stability of the compounds or complexes that they can form with silver and explain your reasons.
