Ammonium metatungstate (AMT), besides being soluble in dilute acid solutions such as dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute nitric acid, and acetic acid, can also dissolve in alkaline solutions like ammonia water. Ammonia water is a weakly alkaline solution formed by dissolving ammonia gas in water, with a pH typically ranging from 9 to 12, depending on concentration: low-concentration ammonia water has a pH of 9-10, while high-concentration ammonia water ranges from 11-12. The dissolution behavior of AMT in ammonia water is…
