Water is neither an acid or a base.
No, H2O (water) is not considered a weak base. It is actually a neutral substance.
Only free, dissolved hydroxides of alkali and earth alkali metals are strong because (OH-)aq is a strong base only if it is a free ion in water.Iron is a (polyvalent) transition metal of which the hydroxides are (partially) non-dissolvable and can form mixed hydrate complex ions (e.g. Fe(OH)3(H2O) ).It is both a weak base and a weak acid!! (all reactions are equilibrium reactions of protolysis)basic: Fe(OH)3(H2O) + H3O+ Fe+(OH)2(H2O)2 + H2OorFe(OH)3(H2O) + H2O Fe+(OH)2(H2O)2 + OH-acidic: Fe(OH)3(H2O) + OH- Fe(OH)4- + H2OorFe(OH)3(H2O) + H2O Fe(OH)4-+ H3O+
NH3 is a weak electrolyte when placed in water. The formula is NH3 + H2O --> NH4+1 + OH-1.
NaHCO3 is a weak base, with a conjugate acid of H2CO3+.
No, H2O and HCl do not form a buffer system because a buffer system requires a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid to effectively resist changes in pH. HCl is a strong acid, not a weak acid, so it does not form a buffer system with water.

Ammonia is a weak base
Ammonia is a weak base: NH3 + H2O <==> NH4+ + OH-
No, NaH2PO4 is not a strong base. It is actually a weak acid and its conjugate base, Na2HPO4, is a weak base.
Hyaloplasm acts as a weak base, or alkali. It will dissolve in weak bases or acids, but will solidify with strong acids or alcohols. It decomposes into H2O, NH3 and CO2.
No, CH3O is not a strong base. It is a weak base.
