Question

Sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide are soluble in water. Write the chemical equation of:-

Ammonium hydroxide with hydrochloric acid

Answer 1

Reaction summary

Ammonium hydroxide$\left({\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{OH}\right)$ reacts with hydrochloric acid $\left(\mathrm{HCl}\right)$ to form Ammonium chloride$\left({\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}\right)$, and water $\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)$.

Balanced chemical equation

${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{OH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+\mathrm{HCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)\to {\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)$
