Question

Identify the products of the following reactions.

• A. ${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}+H_{2}O$
• B. ${\mathrm{NH}}_4{\mathrm{NO}}_3+H_{2}O$
• C. ${\left({\mathrm{NH}}_4\right)}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4+2H_{2}O$

Answer 1

Aqueous ammonia solution is basic in nature. On reaction with acids, neutralisation takes place and a salt and water are formed as products.
${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{OH}+\mathrm{HCl}\to$${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}+H_{2}O$
${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{OH}+{\mathrm{HNO}}_3\to$${\mathrm{NH}}_4{\mathrm{NO}}_3+H_{2}O$
$2{\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{OH}+H_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4\to$${\left({\mathrm{NH}}_4\right)}_2{\mathrm{SO}}_4+2H_{2}O$
