How could test for the ammonium ion?
Bases displace ammonia from ammonium compounds, so... 1) Take small amount of the substance that you want to test to see if ammonium ions are present 2) Add some sodium hydroxide 3) Heat gently 4) Ammonia gas is produced if the ammonium ion was present. You can know that ammonia gas is given off if the gas turns damp litmus paper blue.

Why ammonium hydroxide cannot be primary standard?
Because it is a instable solution of gaseous ammonia (NH3) in water. (cit.) Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) is a common, though not entirely correct name for a solution of ammonia dissolved in water. When dissolved in water ammonia reacts to a small degree with water to produce ammonium hydroxide solution (NH3 + H2O --> NH4+ + OH-). But this only forms in a small amount ammonium (NH4+) and most of the ammonia remains unreacted as NH3. 'Ammonium hydroxide' substance cannot be isolated at all, as any attempt to separate it out will result in it reverting back to ammonia and water. (from wiki-answers)

How do you prepare ammonium fertilizer?
the ammonium salt produced by a neutralization process, by reacting the ammonium hydroxide with dilute sulphuric acid. the amount of ammonia added into the sulphuric acid is enough when the amniotic smell produced. drop the ammonia little by little. then, heat while stir the mixture until the solution becomes 1/3 of the original volume. lastly, to obtain the salt, the filtration process should be done after the solution is cool.

Does ammonium peroxide exist?
Yes and no. Ammonia only weakly dissociates in water [NH4+][OH-]/[NH3] = 10^-5 = Kb Thus, even at an [OH-] of 10^-2 (from the pH of strong ammonia solutions) only 1 molecule in 1000 is dissociated into true ammonium hydroxide. It would take an acid with a acid dissociation const >=10^-5 to form a stable salt with ammonia, that was mainly that salt. Although water-baseed solutions of ammonia are called ammonium hydroxide, water is not a strong enough acid to form more than a microscopic amount of ammonium hydroxide when in contact with ammonia. The Ka of water is [OH-][H+]/[H2O] = 10^-16 The Ka of hydrogen peroxide is [OOH-][H+] = 10^-11.75 a little better than water but not enough to give more than a microscopic amount of (NH4+)(OOH-) in solution. So yes, it does exist, but no you cannot have a pure sample of (NH4)(OOH).
What is NH3 dissociation reaction?
Essentially ammonia reacts with the natural amount of acid within the water to dissolve, forming ammonium. Water will continue to dissociate to support the reaction since this is also an equilibrium.
What happens when you mix ammonia and vinegar together?
Explosion A slight amount of chlorine gas could result (though not likely), otherwise Ammonium Acetate & Water in a stable form. Ammonium Acetate is sometimes used as a decent biodegradable de-icing agent.
What is the amount of nitrogen in ammonium chloride?
about 24.99% nitrogen is present in ammonium chloride........
What gas diffuses more quickly hydrochloric acid or ammonium hydroxide?
Two gasses at the same temperature have the same average amount of kinetic energy per molecule. An ammonia (NH3) molecule has less mass than hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride, HCl) molecule. Since the NH3 has the same amount of kinetic energy as the more massive HCl, ammonia molecules will move faster and thus diffuse faster. Kinetic energy ~ 1/2*m*v2
What you call it the process of converting ammonia to-urine?
There is a small amount of ammonia in urine. Ammonia is not converted to urine.
