Question #252471

Amide ion, H2N-, is a much stronger base than hydroxide ion, Ho-. Which is the
stronger acid, NH, or H,O? Explain

Expert's answer

NH


This is the classic acid species in solution, so a solution of NH4+(aq) ions is slightly acidic. NH4Cl is an example of an acid salt. The molecule NH3 is a weak base, and it will form when it can, just like a weak acid will form when it can.
