Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the reactants: NH4OH (ammonium hydroxide) is a base, and HNO3 (nitric acid) is an acid.
Recognize that this is an acid-base neutralization reaction where the base NH4OH will react with the acid HNO3 to form a salt and water.
Write the general neutralization reaction: \(\mathrm{Base} + \mathrm{Acid} \rightarrow \mathrm{Salt} + \mathrm{Water}\).
Determine the ions involved: NH4OH dissociates into \(\mathrm{NH_4^+}\) and \(\mathrm{OH^-}\), and HNO3 dissociates into \(\mathrm{H^+}\) and \(\mathrm{NO_3^-}\).
Combine the cation from the base (\(\mathrm{NH_4^+}\)) with the anion from the acid (\(\mathrm{NO_3^-}\)) to form the salt \(\mathrm{NH_4NO_3}\).
