Solution
\[\ce{\underset{\text{Colourless}}{ZnSO4} + 2NH4OH ->\underset{\text{White, gelatinous ppt.}}{Zn(OH)2\downarrow} + \underset{\text{colourless}}{(NH4)2SO4}}\]
With excess of NH4OH, ppt. dissolves
\[\ce{\underset{Excess}{Zn(OH)2} + 4NH4OH -> \underset{(Colourless solution)}{\underset{Tetra-ammine zinc (II) hydroxide}{[Zn(NH3)4](OH)2}} + 4H2O}\]
