Ammonium ions:
NH3 + H+ --> NH4+
Ammonia is a basic gas. It is not a neutral gas.
Adding ammonia to a mixture will actually make it more basic, not acidic. Ammonia is a weak base that can accept protons, thereby increasing the concentration of hydroxide ions and leading to a higher pH value.
Urine has an acidic pH because it contains waste products like uric acid and ammonia that make it more acidic.
No, this is false.
Because it is basic and acids react with bases. The lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen of ammonia will donate to the proton from an acid. An ammonium salt is thus formed. e.g. NH3 + HCl = NH4Cl
No. Ammonia in any form is basic.
Salts are obtained after the reaction of NH4OH with acids.
Acids can be categorized based on the number of acidic protons they contain. Acids with one acidic proton are called monoprotic acids, those with two acidic protons are called diprotic acids, and those with three acidic protons are called triprotic acids.
Drain cleaner is the most acidic liquid among the options listed. Ammonia, Coca Cola, and vinegar are not highly acidic substances compared to drain cleaner. Drain cleaner typically contains strong acids like sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid.
The most acidic hydride of nitrogen is ammonia (NH3). This is because ammonia can donate a proton (H+) to a base, making it acidic. The other hydrides of nitrogen, such as hydrazine (N2H4) and hydrogen azide (HN3), are less acidic than ammonia.
Acidic oxides form (oxy)acids with water: eg. SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3
vinegar is acidic
