Best Answer

The gas ammonia, NH3, is a pure substance. Sometimes a solution of NH3 in water is called ammonia too although it shold be called aqueous ammonia for clarity. In that case it is a mixture, and since it is protonated to slightly less than 1%, it is a mixture of water, NH3, Ammonium ions NH4+ and hydroxide ions OH-.
