The ammonium ion (NH4+) is mildly acidic.
It is not to be confused with ammonia (NH3), which is basic
acidic
NH4+ ions are weakly acidic (pKa=9.23) and NO3- is neutral. So pH is about 5 for dilute solutions.
NH4 +One plus.
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 known as the ammonium radical.
NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+
The HCl is hydrochloric acid
NH4+ ions are weakly acidic (pKa=9.23) and NO3- is neutral. So pH is about 5 for dilute solutions.
Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) is a base. The cation (NH4)+ is low acidic.
NH4 +One plus.
(NH4)+ is the ammonium cation.
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 known as the ammonium radical.
Ammonium ions: NH3 + H+ --> NH4+
acidic acidic acidic
NH3 is the conjugate base of NH4+
The answer would have to be H2O because if you use red litmus paper to the solution it would turn blue and this would indicate an basic solution. Therefor NH4+=Basic solution H2O is considered an acid. If you still have trouble type up "Table Of Acids And Bases". You'll see for your self in fact that it's an Basic solution.
