The conjugate base of $\mathrm{NH}_4^{+}$is

  • A
    $\mathrm{NH}^{2-}$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $\mathrm{NH}_3$
  • C
    $\mathrm{NH}_2^{-}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{OH}$

Solution

$\mathrm{NH}_4^{+}$is the conjugate base of $\mathrm{NH}_3 \cdot \mathrm{NH}_4^{+}$is an acid because it will donate $\mathrm{H}^{+}$to the water to become $\mathrm{NH}_3$. Figure

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
