I disagree. Household ammonia is 5-10% ammonia. The solvent (the major component) is water. Ammonia is the minor component and is thus a solute.


Is ammonia solute or solvent?

Depending on what you are trying to do, it could be a solute, solvent or mutual solvent.Mutual solvents are fun. They are a way to create a solution of two chemicals that won't dissolve into each other on their own. Let's say you want to dissolve water into fuel - it's wintertime and you know having water freezing up in your fuel lines is not a good thing. You also know if water gets in your fuel tank the fuel will float on top of it. But if you put a chemical, like isopropyl alcohol which is the active ingredent in gas-line antifreeze, that will dissolve in both water and fuel in the tank you will get your desired result - the IPA will dissolve into the water, then carry the dissolved water into the fuel.


Why is ethanoic acid a stronger acid in liquid ammonia than in aqueous solution?

Ethanoic acid is a stronger acid in liquid ammonia because ammonia is a weaker base compared to water. Therefore, in liquid ammonia, ethanoic acid easily donates a proton to the ammonia molecules, forming the acetate ion. This proton transfer reaction is more favorable than in water due to the difference in the basicity of the solvent.

Does a solution of ammonia give out a white solid when dried?

No, ammonia is the solution of a gas (NH3) in water; when water is evaporated teh hydrated ammonia molecules escape as gas molecules. Solid ammonia can only be held at very low temperature:Pure ammonia liquid boils at −33.3 °C, and freezes at −77.7 °C to white crystals, but at that temperature the watery solvent is already deeply froozen to ice, so it isn't a solution anymore.
