Yes. Ammonia is a base. It will react with an acid to form the corresponding ammonium salt.

Will the base NH3 base react with an acid?

Yes, NH3 can react with an acid to form an ammonium salt. NH3 acts as a base by accepting a proton from the acid to form NH4+ (ammonium ion). This reaction is called an acid-base reaction.


What is the acid name for NH3?

NH3 is Ammonia, which is not an acid.


Is NH3 an acid in water?

No, it isn't, NH3 in water is NH3.H2O or NH4OH, it is an alkali, not an acid.


Do nitrogen react with acid?

Nitrogen itself does not typically react with acids. However, nitrogen can form acids when it combines with hydrogen, as seen in compounds like ammonia (NH3) and hydrazine (N2H4), which can react with acids.


What do ammonia and acid make?

Ammonium ions: NH3 + H+ --> NH4+


Which is amphoteric solvent nh3 ch3cooh or ch3cooh h2o or h2o nh3 or all are the correct?

all are amphoteric ic solutions because in ammonia plus acetic acid case ammonia is base and acetic acid is acid , in next water will behave as base and in last case water will react as acid .


Ammonia react with hydrochloric acid?

Ammonia reacts with hydrochloric acid to form ammonium chloride. This reaction is a double displacement reaction, where the ammonia molecule donates a proton to the chloride ion resulting in the formation of the ammonium ion and chloride ion. The overall reaction can be written as: NH3 + HCl -> NH4Cl.


Give the products what acid base reactions and identify the conjugate acid base pairs NH3 H2O and NH4 CN?

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


What is the formula for Aqueous nitric acid and aqueous ammonia react?

The reaction between aqueous nitric acid (HNO3) and aqueous ammonia (NH3) produces ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) and water (H2O) as products. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: HNO3 + NH3 → NH4NO3 + H2O.


What is the conjugate acid of NH3?

NH4+ is NH3's conjugate acid. NH3 accepts H+ to become a Bronsted-Lowry base.


What reacts to ammonia?

NH3 is generally basic acid. It reacts with acidic things.


What is a strong acid NaOH HF NH3 HCl?

HCl is a strong acid, while NaOH, HF, and NH3 are not strong acids. NaOH is a strong base, HF is a weak acid, and NH3 is a weak base.
