Yes, ammonia NH3 is alkaline in solution (though weakly):
NH3 + H2O <<--> NH4+ + OH-
The formula for aqueous ammonia is NH3. When ammonia gas dissolves in water, it forms an alkaline solution.
Ammonia is a compound (NH3) that acts as a weak base. It can accept a proton (H+) to form ammonium ions (NH4+), making it slightly alkaline in solution.
There is one that I know of. Ammonia gas. :)
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and water will always create an alkaline solution when mixed together. Additionally, ammonia (NH3) and water will also produce an alkaline solution when combined.
Ammonia is the scientific name for NH3.

NH3 (ammonia) is considered a BL base because when in aqueous solution it produces the hydroxyl ion , OH-. The reaction looks like this: NH3 + H2O ==>NH4OH ==> NH4^+ + OH^-. Even though the equilibrium lies far to the left, their is sufficient OH- produced to make an alkaline solution.
NH3 is Ammonia, which is not an acid.

Yes, you can create an alkaline solution without metallic ions by using a non-metallic base such as ammonia (NH3). Ammonia is a weak base that can increase the pH of a solution without introducing metallic ions.
In acid solution the carboxyl group is not ionized (-COOH) and the amino group is ionized (-NH3+). In alkaline solution the carboxyl roup is negatively charged (-COO-) and the amino group is not ionized (-NH2). At neutral physiological pH, the carboxyl group bearing a negative charge (-COO-) and the amino group a positive charge (-NH3+).
NH3-Ammonia
NH3 is known as ammonia.
Consider NH3 reacting with water to form ammonium and hydroxide ions according to this equation: NH3(g) + H2O(l) --> NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq). In order to form the products, the water molecule has to donate a hydrogen to the NH3. Because the water has donated a hydrogen ion, it is a B-L acid; because the NH3 has accepted it, it is a B-L base. In the reverse reaction, the NH4+ is the acid and the OH- is the base. This makes NH4+ and NH3 a conjugate acid-base pair, and it makes H2O and OH- a conjugate acid-base pair as well.
