Solution

With Nessler’s reagent ( an alkaline solution of K2Hgl4 ) ammonia and ammonium salts give brown precipitate due to formulation of Million’s base.

\[\ce{\underset{\text{Nessler's reagent }}{2K2HgI4} + NH3 + 3KOH -> \underset{\text{(Iodide of million’s base)}}{H2N–Hg–O–Hg–I} + 7KI + 2H2O}\]
