NH₃ is a strong electrolyte and will dissociate into Na+ and Cl- ions in solution. CaF₂ and MgCO₃ are both soluble salts, but they will not be more soluble in the presence of NaCl. SrSO₄ and Ba(NO₃)₂ are insoluble in water and so will not dissolve to any significant extent in the NH₃ solution. AgI, on the other hand, is sparingly soluble in water but dissolves more readily in the presence of a source of Ag+ ions, such as NaCl. Therefore, AgI is the most likely compound to be more soluble in the NH₃ solution.
