The Ammonium ion (NH4+) is the ion formed when ammonia (NH3) acquires an H+ ion from an acid.

The hydronium ion (H3O+) when water acquires an H+ ion from an acid. It is not stable outside of an aqueous (water) environment.

Is ammonium the only positive charged polyatomic?

No. There is a hydronium H3O+ ion, but it can only exist in an aqueous solution. There are also organic analogues to the ammonium ion in which one of the hydrogen atoms in an ammonium ion is replaced with a hydrocarbon group. There is also the mercury I ion, Hg22+.


Why is ammonium acidic in water?

Ammonium (NH4+) in water can donate a proton (H+) to water molecules, forming ammonium ion (NH4+) and hydronium ion (H3O+). This reaction increases the concentration of hydronium ions, leading to an acidic solution.
