No, it is usually made by mixing ammonia (NH3) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). However ammonium chloride is a pure, new substance rather than a mixture of these two.

NH3(gas) + HCl(gas) --> NH4Cl(solid) ('fume of salmiak')

What is formed if you mix hydrochloric acid with amonia?

Ammonia + Hydrochloric acid ----> Ammonium Chloride NH3 + HCl ----> NH4Cl


What salt is formed when hydrochloric acid reacts with ammonia?

Ammonium chloride. This is a CHemical Salt. HCl + NH3 = NH4Cl


What does hydrochloric acid and ammonia make?

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and ammonia (NH3) react to form ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). This reaction is exothermic and produces white fumes of ammonium chloride.


What is the word equation for Ammonia reacting with hydroelectric acid?

I am guessing that you mean hydrochloric acid, and the reaction is ammonia plus hydrochloric acid gives ammonium chloride; NH3 + HCl => NH4Cl


Is ammonium chloride base?

ammonium on it's own is a base and chlorine is not an acid. so i think ammonium chloride is a base.


Which acid and base combine to form ammonium chloride?

Ammonium chloride is formed by the combination of ammonia (base) and hydrochloric acid (acid), according to the following reaction: NH3 (aq) + HCl (aq) -> NH4Cl (aq).


What acid neutralises ammonium hydroxide to make ammonium chloride?

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) can neutralize ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) to form ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) and water. The reaction involves the H+ ions from the acid reacting with the OH− ions from the base to form water, while the remaining ions combine to form the salt.


Which acid and base is used to make ammonium chloride?

The acid required is Hydrochloric Acid and the base is Ammonium Hydroxide (Ammonia solution in water). If the acid and base are very concentrated and merely placed close to each other, the vapours from them will react immediately to form white clouds of ammonium chloride particles.


What gas will be produced when hydrochloric acid is reacted with ammonium carbonate?

(NH4)2CO3+2HCl=H2O+CO2+2NH4Cl ammonium carbonate+hydrochloric acid=water+carbondioxide+Ammonium chloride It can also form ammonium chloride and hydocarbonic acid


What is the chemical name of the formula NH4Cl?

NH4Cl is ammonium chloride. It is the product of an acid-base reaction between ammonia and hydrochloric acid. It is mildly acidic.


What acids have been used to make the following salts sodium chloride calcium sulfate ammonium nitrate?

Sodium chloride = hydrochloric acid, HCl Calcium sulfate = sulfuric acid, H2SO4 Ammonium nitrate = nitric acid, HNO3


Is ammonium chloride a base or acid?

Ammonium chloride is an acidic salt because it is formed by the reaction of ammonia, a weak base, with hydrochloric acid, a strong acid. In water, the salt dissociates to form ammonium ions and chloride ions, which can react with water to produce acid.
