I'm very sorry to inform you that ammonium oxide does NOT exist!
Even the ammonium hydroxide, much better known as ammonia, doesn't exist.
Citation in wikipedia:
Ammonium hydroxide, also known as ammonia water, ammonical liquor, ammonia liquor, aqua ammonia, or aqueous ammonia, is a solution of ammonia in water. It can be denoted by the symbols NH3(aq). Although its name suggests a salt with composition [NH4+][OH−], it is not actually possible to isolate samples of NH4OH - it exists only in dilute aqueous solutions.
NH4+ is not an alkali metal, though it forms halogenides, nitrates and other salts like K+ and Na+.
In a 1M ammonia solution, about 0.42% of the ammonia is converted to ammonium, NH4+, equivalent to a pH of 11.63.
NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH−.
The base ionization constant is
Kb = [NH4+][OH-]/[NH3] = 1.8×10−5

Is ammonium oxide covalent or ionic?
If ammonium oxide existed it would be ionic. However, because the oxide ion is such a strong base this compound would immediately turn into ammonium hydroxide and water.
what is the chemical name for (NH4)2O?
This formula is for ammonium oxide.
What is the ionic formula for ammonium oxide?
There is a compound ammonium hydoxide, NH4OH (cannot be isolated - only in solution) there is no ammonium oxide, if there wrer it would have the forula (NH4)2O
What are some uses for ammonium hydroxide?
ammonium hyrdroxide doesn't exist!! In fact, it turns only into NH3 and H2O
What is the chemical name of NH2O-4?
ammonium oxide

what is the chemical name for (NH4)2O?
This formula is for ammonium oxide.
What is NH42O?
Ammonium oxide
How can you separate ammonium chloride and copper oxide?
Ammonium chloride is soluble in water and copper oxide not; dissolve the mixture and filter.
What is the ionic formula for ammonium oxide?

What is the name of the ionic compound (NH4)2O?
The compound is ammonium oxide. You can tell because the NH4+ and O2- ions are present.
What are some uses for ammonium hydroxide?
ammonium hyrdroxide doesn't exist!! In fact, it turns only into NH3 and H2O
What is the chemical name of NH2O-4?
ammonium oxide
The total number of atoms in one molecule of ammonium oxide?
11
Can you prepare ammonia using calcium oxide and ammonium chloride?
Yes. Ammonium salts such as ammonium chloride will react with a strong base to yield ammonia.
How nitrous oxide for cars are made?
All nitrous oxide is made by heating ammonium nitrate very carefully (you get it too hot and it explodes), then using various filters and washes to clean the nitric oxides, ammonium nitrate smoke and other contaminates from the nitrous oxide.
Which one uses popularly acidic fertilizer-ammonium sulphate or superphosphate of lime?
ammonium sulphate
