The question said, write an equation, including state symbols, to show THIS behaviour of ammonium...so I think that both will be acceptable bqz showing the behaviour of ammonium was important and the equation must have been linked to our explanation so if we explained in terms of H+ ions, then writing the equation including only H+ and excluding H2O will be acceptable....No??

Did it say " this behavior of ammonium with WATER '' . coz if it didn't.. will the equation NH4+ + OH- ----> NH3 + H2O work ?? i dont know whether it specifically said '' water ''

Water wasn't specifically mentioned but I'm not sure about this equation
If water wasn't mentioned, then I think this equation will work.. I wrote NH3 + H2O <---- ------> NH4+ + OH- .. you can see that NH4 + has donated a proton to OH- and has thus formed NH3 + H2O.. if i am not wrong..
however, not sure whether water was mentioned or not..

well yes they make a balanced paper for those who appear in the same session so that the threshold is not too high nor too low
so this could be a possibility
So this means if there was only 10% organic in P2 then most of the P4 will be organic based as normally 60% is organic in P4 ?!!

For b why is n=1 should it be n=2 ??
For b why is n=1 should it be n=2 ??[/QUOTE]
my weird method
ok so in the question its clearly stated that cr-cl in the complex does not react . hence the values given in the table are for cl(3-n) that reacts with ag . so now the moles you calculated in the previous question (3.75*10^-3) compare that with each isomer . For A its 1:1 ( same moles ) so we have to make the cl outside the complex =1 and to do that we make n =2 . for isomer b it's 1:2 (7.5/3.75) that means that there will 2 chlorine that react hence to make cl2 we need to make n = 2
