In summary, the reaction between ammonium vandate(V) and dilute hydrochloric acid is represented by the chemical equation NH<sub>4</sub>VO<sub>3</sub> + HCl → NH<sub>4</sub>Cl + HVO<sub>3</sub>. This is a double displacement reaction, producing ammonium chloride and vanadium(III) oxide as products. Hydrochloric acid plays the role of a strong acid, providing the necessary H<sup>+</sup> ions and aiding in the dissolution of the solid compound. This reaction can be used for separating and purifying vanadium compounds, producing catalysts, and preparing vanadium salts for industrial use.

Hello!
Ammonium metavandate(V), NH4VO3 and dilute HCl:
forms the dioxovanadium ion, VO2+; and the following happens:
VO3- + 2H+ ----> VO2+ + H2O

I can't see what happens in the overall equation. I went for:
NH4VO3 + 2HCl ----> NH4Cl + VO2Cl + H2O
I couldn't find an online source with this equation, is it right?
Any help much appreciated.
Many thanks
Nobahar.
