Ammonium Hydroxide 1M Solution
Ammonium Hydroxide, NH4OH, is formed when ammonia (NH3) is dissolved in water. Ammonia deprotonates a small portion of water molecules leaving the free hydroxide ion, [OH]-, to form a slightly basic solution. The resulting solution is clear, colorless, with a pungent odor and vapors that may irritate the eyes.Ammonium Hydroxide, 1.0 M solution is prepared by mixing 6.19 mL of Ammonium Hydroxide solution (56% w/w) in 100 mL deionized water. It appears as colorless liquid and having no odor at room temperature. For the measurement of total iodine (m/z 127) in baby formula and adult nutritional goods, an ammonium hydroxide solution is utilized to create a single-laboratory validation using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. Lab Alley’s Ammonium Hydroxide, 0.1N is ideal for routine lab activities involving chromatography, analytical reagents, titration and volumetric solutions.
