MCQ
Ammonia gas dissolves in water to form $N{H_4}OH$. In this reaction water acts as
- AA conjugate base
- BA non-polar solvent
- ✓An acid
- DA base
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
An acid
(c) $\mathop {{H_2}O\,}\limits_{{\rm{Acid}}} + \mathop {N{H_3}}\limits_{{\rm{base}}} ⇌NH_4^ + + O{H^ - }$.
In this reaction ${H_2}O$ acts as acid because it donate a proton.
