Ello ✌️
here is ur answer....
A substance that accepts and H+ from water is considered a base. Both NH3 and H2O are amphoteric (they have H atoms that can be donated as H+ ions and thus act as acids and lone-pair electrons that can accept an H+ and thus act as bases). Thus, either NH3 or H2O can act as an acid or a base.
hope it helps.....❤️
