It is an acid, because it gives off one of its' H+ protons during a reaction. It is an acid, because it gives off one of its' H+ protons during a reaction. It is an acid, because it gives off one of its' H+ protons during a reaction.
both.
NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+
The conjugate acid of any substance is given by removing an acidic hydrogen. In the case of ammonium ion, the conjugate base is ammonia.
NH3 is a bronsted base. It has a lone pair.
it can either be an acid or a base depending on its participation in the reaction. if it accepts H+ then it is a base and if it donates H+ then it is an acid..
well NH3 is a base that reacts with H2O to get NH4 + OH- NH3+ H2O-->NH4+ + OH- A conjugate base is the species formed when a Bronsted- Lowry base accepts a proton. NH4+ is the conjugate acid of NH3
NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+
Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) is a base. The cation (NH4)+ is low acidic.
acid ( {NH4}+ )
The conjugate acid of any substance is given by removing an acidic hydrogen. In the case of ammonium ion, the conjugate base is ammonia.
NH4+ is NH3's conjugate acid. NH3 accepts H+ to become a Bronsted-Lowry base.

NH3 + H20 <----> NH4+ + OH- Ammonia is a weak base so it is the favored side of the equilbrium. Conjugate acid and base pairs only differ by a proton. So ammonia and ammonium are pairs and water and hydroxide ions are pairs. NH4+ + CN- <-------> HCN + NH3
Salt, although i dont believe this molecule exists. NH3 in water can attract a proton from a H2O molecule and form NH4+ + OH-. This is called ammoniumhydroxide (NH4OH). Since the ammonia creates an OH- it is a base and the NH4+ is its conjegated acid.
it is an acidic salt due to NH4+ ions being weak acid (pKa=9.2)
Dissolving in water = splitting in ionsCH3COONH4 --> CH3COO- + NH4+CH3COO-, acetate is a weak base: CH3COO- + H2O CH3COOH + OH-NH4+, ammonium is a weak acid: NH4+ + H2O NH3 + H3O+Totally in water: CH3COO- + NH4+ CH3COOH + NH3 and 2H2O H3O+ + OH-
