The ammonium ion (NH4+) is an ion, and is therefore found in compounds. As such, the state of matter it takes depends upon the properties of the compound it is in.
Ammonia (NH3), a compound, is a gas at room temperature.

Why is ammonium chloride a solid?
because it has ionic bond between ammonium ion and chloride ion.. the ionic bond is nondirectional , so a 3 dimensional lattice is formed....
Is nitrate a solid liquid or gas?
Nitrate is a negative ion (anion), NO3-. It does not exist in isolation, but must be part of a compound with a positive ion (cation). Examples of nitrate salts are sodium nitrate, NaNO3-, magnesium nitrate, Mg(NO3)2 and ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3. These salts are solid at room temperature and water soluble. (When nitric acid, HNO3, dissolves in water the solution also contains the nitrate ion as well as hydrogen ions)
Which of these is the correct formula for the ammonium ion?
The ammonium ion is (NH4)+.
Why when ammonia gas is bubbled into water the solution has such a high pH value?
it because of the ammonium ion form in the solution. Ammonium solution is an alkaline.
Chemical test for ammonium ion?
Bases displace ammonia from ammonium compounds, so... 1) Take small amount of the substance that you want to test to see if ammonium ions are present 2) Add some sodium hydroxide 3) Heat gently 4) Ammonia gas is produced if the ammonium ion was present. You can know that ammonia gas is given off if the gas turns damp litmus paper blue.
Is ammonium a gas?
Ammonia is a gas. Ammonium is an ion that is mostly found in solid substances.
Could ammonium be a gas?
Ammonium isn't a gas, it is an ion. Ammonia, however, is a gas.
Is ammonium gas a base or acid?
Ammonia gas is a base. Ammonium is an ion derived from ammonia.
Is NA plus a spectator ion?
in most reactions it is, however if it is said that it is a liquid solid or gas it is not a spectator ion
What is the difference between ammonia gas and ammonia ion?
What is the difference between ammonia gas and an ammonium ion?
The three fundamental phases of matter?
fundamental phase of matter are solid,liquid,gas,ion
Is phosphate a solid liquid or a gas?
Phosphate is an ion, not a substance in and of itself. Most phosphates, however, are solids.
Why is ammonium chloride a solid?
because it has ionic bond between ammonium ion and chloride ion.. the ionic bond is nondirectional , so a 3 dimensional lattice is formed....
Is sodium a liquid solid or gas in the body?
Sodium is a solid metal at room temperatures. In the body it only exists as an ion of one of it salts.
What is the physical state of ammonium at 25 degrees Celsius?
Ammonium is the ion (NH4)+. If you think to ammonia (NH3) this is a gas at 25 0C.
