What acid can be added to ammonia for it to convert into ammonium nitrate?
Nitric Acid
What is the pH of ammonium nitrate?
The P.H. of Ammonium Nitrate is 7(neutral). Why? Now that's a good question. It is on 7 because it is an acid mixed with and alkali which is known as a Neutralization reaction. That is why it is 7 on the P.H. scale. The equation is Ammonium Hydroxide+Nitric Acid which equals to Ammonium Nitrate.
