Abstract
The conventional statement is: “For a weak base such as ammonia NH4OH, BOH = B+ + OH−,
where K b is the dissociation constant of the base.” The so-called “0.88 ammonia” is about 18.0 M, 31.3 m, and contains about 0.564 mole per mole (H2O) of water at 12°C. At 0°C, \(x_{NH_3 }\) is 0.953 for \(p_{NH_3 }\), and this corresponds to 52.9 m and should, in accordance with the conventional statement, be looked upon as almost “pure NH4OH.”
