Answer:

The chemical formula of ammonium chloride is NH Cl. Since, ammonium chloride is the salt of a strong acid HCl and a weak base NH4OH, so an aqueous solution of ammonium chloride is acidic in nature. ... So, NH4Cl contains more of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions and is hence acidic in nature.

Answer:

formula:- NH4Cl

Ammonium chloride is a salt of a strong acid (HCl) and a weak base (NH3). ... The presence of such additional hydrogen ions that are formed due to hydrolysis is responsible for the distinct acidic nature of an aqueous solution of a salt of a strong acid and a weak base like ammonium chloride.
