- Paragraph:
When a metal rod \(M\) is dipped into an aqueous colourless concentrated solution of compound \(\mathrm{N}\), the solution turns light blue. Addition of aqueous \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) to the blue solution gives a white precipitate \(\mathrm{O}\). Addition of aqueous \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) dissolves \(\mathrm{O}\) and gives an intense blue solution.
