Correct Answer - B
`underset((M))(Cu)+underset((N))(2AgNO_(3))rarrunderset(("Blue"))(Cu(NO_(3))_(2))+2Ag`
`NaCl+underset(("remaining"))(AgNO_(3))rarrunderset((O))(AgCldarr)+NaNO_(3)`
`2AgCl+2NH_(3)(aq)rarrunderset(("Soluble"))([Ag(NH_(3))_(2)]^(+))`
`underset(("remaining"))(Cu(NO_(3))_(2))+4NH_(3)(aq)rarrunderset(("Deep blue colour"))([Cu(NH_(3))_(4)](NO_(3))_(2))`
