Question

complete and balance the following equation:

${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}+\mathrm{NaOH}\stackrel{}{\to }----$

Answer 1

Reaction of ammonium chloride with sodium hydroxide:

• When ammonium chloride(${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}$) reacts with sodium hydroxide($\mathrm{NaOH}$),it results in the formation of ammonia(${\mathrm{NH}}_3$),water(${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$) and sodium chloride($\mathrm{NaCl}$).
• $\underset{\mathrm{ammonium}\mathrm{chloride}}{{\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{sodium}\mathrm{hydroxide}}{\mathrm{NaOH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}\to \underset{\mathrm{ammonia}}{{\mathrm{NH}}_3\left(\mathrm{g}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{water}}{{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{sodiumchloride}}{\mathrm{NaCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}$
