Write balanced chemical equation when Ammonia reacts with Hydrogen chloride gas

Open in App

Solution

When Ammonia (NH₃) gas reacts with Hydrogen chloride (HCl) gas, it forms the salt ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) in gaseous state.
But immediately it gets transformed into the solid state.
${NH}_{3} (g) + HCl (g) \to {NH}_{4} Cl (g)$
${NH}_{4} Cl$ is formed from the reaction of ${NH}_{3}$ , a weak base, and $HCl$ , a strong acid.
