Solution

Reaction between Ammonia and Sulphuric acid:

  • Ammonia is a weak basic in nature and sulphuric acid is a strong acid.
  • So, ammonia reacts with sulphuric acid leading to the formation of a salt of weak base and strong acid.
  • Ammonia (NH3) reacts with Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to give Ammonium sulphate((NH4)2SO4) as a product.

Balanced chemical equation:

2NH3gAmmoniagas+H2SO4aqSulphuricacidNH42SO4aqAmmoniumsulphate
