Compound????
Ammonia, NH3 is a weak base in solution. Can pick up a proton.
We can logically walk through this. Hydrogen has 1 proton, and 1 electron. Chlorine has 17. If these were to combine stably, Argon would be made. Argon is a noble gas and therefore has 8 full valence electron slots.
Proton
bond in ammonia is less polar than that of water so it is harder to remove proton from ammonia than water.
it is a proton acceptor.
Ammonia is an aquous solution of NH3, which is a basic molecule that partially will take one proton from H2O (water) and to produce NH4+ ion and leaving a hydroxyl ion OH- , which makes the solution basic
Because it is basic and acids react with bases. The lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen of ammonia will donate to the proton from an acid. An ammonium salt is thus formed. e.g. NH3 + HCl = NH4Cl
proton bond
The molecule of nitric acid lose a hydrogen atom, not only a proton.
Ammonia accepts H+ ions to form NH4+ ions. Bases are proton acceptors
Hydrogen only has one proton ,so it can pass that one proton onto another element, making it part of a molecule. It can become an ion if it loses that proton, or gains that proton.
it acts as a proton acceptor
A proton is smaller than a nucleus, which is smaller than an atom, which is again smaller than a molecule.
No. A proton is a subatomic particle, and a component of atoms. Atoms are components of molecules. An organic molecule must contain carbon atoms.
