Ammonium bromide is an acidic salt, as it is formed from the reaction of a weak base (ammonia) and a strong acid (hydrobromic acid). It will dissociate in water to produce ammonium ions, which can act as weak acids.

Why ia acid so important?

Acids are often used to remove rust and other corrosion from metals in a process known as pickling. They may be used as an electrolyte in a wet cell battery, such as sulfuric acid in a car battery. In humans and many other animals, hydrochloric acid is a part of the gastric acid secreted within the stomach to help hydrolyze proteins and polysaccharides, as well as converting the inactive pro-enzyme, pepsinogen into the enzyme, pepsin. Steel used in construction is acid treated before painting. Dilute sulphuric or hydrochloric acid will remove any surface rust which would otherwise spread under the painted surface. 'Rust remover' used to repair cars is dilute phosphoric acid - H3PO4. Baking powder contains tartaric acid. 'Lime scale' removers contain dilute acids. Try using lemon juice or vinegar (weak acids). Lime scale is calcium carbonate (also called furring). A wasp sting is alkali. It may be neutralised with a weak acid (lemon juice or vinegar).
