i have an additional question concerning the above question
Calculate the hydronium ion concentration and the pH when 50.0ml of 0.40M NH3 is mixed with 50.0ml of 0.40M HCl. show the equation for the reaction in terms of hydronium ion? any ideas how to start solving this question?

Ammonia dissolves in water to form a weakly basic solution. Therefore, ammonia gas will certainly react with an acid to form a salt, in this case ammonium chloride.
NH3 + HCl = NH4Cl
If an open bottle of concentrated hydrochloric acid is held near an open bottle bottle of concentrated ammonia solution, a white dust is produced where the two gases, hydrogen chloride from the acid and ammonia gas form the ammonia solution meet.

NH3 + HCl = NH4+Cl-
it forms the ammonium chloride salt, the hydrogen from the HCl moves onto the NH3 molecule to from a NH4+ which then bonds with the Cl-

Ammonia plus Hydrochloric acid gives Ammonium chloride.
NH3 + HCl = NH4Cl
