what is the complete equation for NH3 with water?

Question

whats the complete equatin for
NH3 + H2O =>

and also, what is the net ionic equation?




and also, if we add NH4Cl, which direction will the reaction shift? what if we add HCl?

Answer 1

NH3 + H2O <-----> (NH4)+ + OH-

This is the complete and the ionic equation.

This equilibrium lies very heavily to the left.

If you add NH4Cl, the equilibrium will move to the left because you have increased the concentration of (NH4)+ ions. Similarly, if you add HCl, the equilibrium will move to the right because you have added H+ ions, which react with the OH- ions present. So the equilibrium will move to the right to try to replace them.

Answer 2

NH3 + H2O <=> NH4+ + OH- (The plus and minus after NH4 and OH are up like NH4'''''')
NH3 + H2O <=> NH4+ + OH-
NH4Cl=> NH4+ + Cl- So we have more NH4, but ph remains the same work in the same way about HCl
