Silver chloride is insoluble in water because the ionic bonds of the salt are too strong to be broken by the dipole interaction with water. Enhancing the salt's ionic integrity is the lattice energy of the ionic interaction.

Yes, AgCl can be separated from NaCl by adding ammonia solution. AgCl is insoluble in ammonia, so it will precipitate out as a solid while NaCl remains in the solution. The two can then be filtered or separated by decantation.
