You can buy a test kit at a fish store and then you can test it by yourself!

Does extra addition of ammonia dissolve CopperII sulfide?

No, the addition of extra ammonia will not dissolve Copper II sulfide. Copper II sulfide is insoluble in water and ammonia solution; it does not react with ammonia to form soluble complexes.


What is the purpose of nessler's reagent?

Nessler's reagent is used to detect the presence of ammonia in a solution by producing a yellow to brown color. It is commonly used in environmental testing, water treatment processes, and in biochemical experiments to monitor levels of ammonia.


What is the most acidic water ammonia lye or cola?

water is neutral. ammonia and lye are alkaline. cola is acidic due to the presence of carbonic acid and other acidic ingredients.


Does water act as an acid or base with Ammonia?

Water acts as an acid in the presence of ammonia. The ammonia molecule (NH3) is a weak base and will react with water molecules to form ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH), releasing hydroxide ions (OH-) which increase the pH of the solution.


Which of the following is the most basic water lemon juice ammonia or cola?

water is neutral. lemon juice and cola are acidic due to the presence of citric acid and carbonic acid respectively. ammonia is basic


What test can be used to confirm the presence of chlorine?

Add Silver Nitrate to it and a white precipitate should form


Is ammonia and ammonium hydro oxide are same?

No, ammonia (NH3) is a compound composed of nitrogen and hydrogen, while ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) is a solution of ammonia in water. Ammonium hydroxide is a weak base due to the presence of ammonium ions in solution.


What is the reaction of ammonia with oxygen?

The reaction of ammonia (NH3) with oxygen (O2) typically results in the formation of nitrogen monoxide (NO) and water (H2O). This reaction is exothermic and can occur with the presence of a catalyst to accelerate the process.


Why is aqueous ammonia also called ammonia hydroxide?

Aqueous ammonia is sometimes called ammonium hydroxide because ammonia (NH3) reacts with water to a small degree to produce ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH).NH3 + H2O NH4OHBecause ammonia is a weak base only small amounts of ammonium hydroxide are actually formed and an equilibrium is established.


What is the chemical equation for ammonia is heated in the presence of oxygen to give nitric oxide and water?

Nh3 + 2o2 --> hno3 + h2o


Does ammonia dissociate in air by ozone or uv?

ammonia dissociate in air , if bromide available.products of dissociation is nitrogen and water. Ammonia can dissociate by UV in air. Ozone can turn bromide ion to bromate ion, and bromate ion can turn ammonia to nitrogen gas and water. The cheapest method of treating ammonia in water, is to pass the water stream through a wetlands, and let (micro)biology use it for a foodsource.


Why ammonia gas only acts as a week alkali in the presence of water?

Ammonia gas acts as a weak alkali in the presence of water because it partially ionizes to form ammonium ions (NH₄⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻). This ionization process is not complete, which means that only a small fraction of ammonia molecules contribute to the increase in hydroxide ion concentration, resulting in weak alkalinity. The equilibrium established in the solution further limits the extent of ionization, making ammonia a weak base compared to strong alkalis that fully dissociate in water.
