NH3 is NOT an acid.
NH3 is Ammonia. In solution it acts as a weak base.
What else can I help you with?
What is the conjugate acid of NH3?
NH4+ is NH3's conjugate acid. NH3 accepts H+ to become a Bronsted-Lowry base.
Which of these bases has the strongest conjugate acid NH3 N2H4 or CH3NH2?
Among these NH3 is the weakest base so strongest conjugate acid would be NH4+ ion.
What is the name of the molecular compound NH3 which is also known as ammonia?
The IUPAC name is azane.
Why nh3 act as bronsted-lowery base?
Consider NH3 reacting with water to form ammonium and hydroxide ions according to this equation: NH3(g) + H2O(l) --> NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq). In order to form the products, the water molecule has to donate a hydrogen to the NH3. Because the water has donated a hydrogen ion, it is a B-L acid; because the NH3 has accepted it, it is a B-L base. In the reverse reaction, the NH4+ is the acid and the OH- is the base. This makes NH4+ and NH3 a conjugate acid-base pair, and it makes H2O and OH- a conjugate acid-base pair as well.
What is the ionic equation for HNO3 plus Nh3--NH4NO3?
The ionic equation for the reaction between nitric acid (HNO3) and ammonia (NH3) to form ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) is: H+ + NH3 --> NH4+ NO3- + NH4+ --> NH4NO3
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.
What is the conjugate acid of NH3?
NH4+ is NH3's conjugate acid. NH3 accepts H+ to become a Bronsted-Lowry base.
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.
What is amino acid that is in batteries?
the amino acid in the batteries is NH3+
What is the balanced equation for hydrochloric acid with ammonia?
Ammonia plus hydrochloric acid produces ammonium chloride. NH3 + HCl → NH4Cl
What is the scientific name for NH3?
NH3 is Ammonia. It could be thought of as 'nitrogen hydride' , but this name is NEVER used. Ammonia gas has a very strong distinctive smell. Casually it smells like a dirty toilet. The smell from urine is ammonia. Also the brass cleaner 'Brasso' you can smell ammonia.
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.
Is NH3 an acid or a base?
well NH3 is a base that reacts with H2O to get NH4 + OH- NH3+ H2O-->NH4+ + OH- A conjugate base is the species formed when a Bronsted- Lowry base accepts a proton. NH4+ is the conjugate acid of NH3
When does ammonia NH3 behave as a base when it reacts with an acid?
Ammonia NH3 behaves as a base when it reacts with an acid because it accepts a proton and becomes NH4+.
what are the names of the acids that are in household ammonia?
Ammonia (NH3) is not an acid, it is a base.
What is the balanced equation for ammonia and hydrobromic acid?
NH3 (aq)+ HBr(aq) --> NH4+ (aq)+ Br- (aq)
What is the conjugate base for acid NH4 plus?
The conjugate base for acid NH4+ is NH3 (ammonia). When NH4+ loses a proton, it forms NH3, which can act as a weak base in a chemical reaction.
