Alright, this is a conceptually tough one, if you are not very good with recognizing conjugate species. As I suspect, you know that ammonia and ammonium are related. The relationship is that the ammonium is the conjugate acid of ammonia.

They are related by one hydrogen ...

  • Upper and lower confidence intervals: Water treatment example

    One variable monitored is pH, which measures the degree of alkalinity or acidity in the water. A target pH level is 8.5. pH values below 8.5 is acidic and above 8.5 is alkaline, both of which are bad for health.

  • Acidity of various substances

    (P.S: PH is a measure of the activity of hydrogen ions (H+) in a solution and, therefore, its acidity or alkalinity where 7 is neutral and greater than 7 is more basic and less than 7 is more acidic.

  • Mathematics of pH Acidity

  • Chemistry/Buffer Systems: Metabolic Acidosis

    pH is a measure of the "hydrogen ion" content of water and, therefore, of its acidity. Neutral water which is neither acidic nor basic has a pH value of 7. A pH lower than 7 indicates acidity. And a pH higher than 7 indicates basicity.
