Look at the chemical reaction below:

ammonium hydroxide → ammonia + water
[tex]\( NH_4OH \rightarrow NH_3 + H_2O \)[/tex]

In this reaction:

Ammonia [tex]\((NH_3)\)[/tex] is a:
A. reactant
B. product

Ammonium hydroxide [tex]\((NH_4OH)\)[/tex] is a:
A. reactant
B. product


Sagot :

In the given reaction:

[tex]\[ \text{ammonium hydroxide} \rightarrow \text{ammonia} + \text{water} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ NH_4OH \rightarrow NH_3 + H_2O \][/tex]

we can identify the following components:

1. Ammonium hydroxide ([tex]\( NH_4OH \)[/tex]) is the reactant, which means it is the starting substance that undergoes the chemical change.
2. Ammonia ([tex]\( NH_3 \)[/tex]) and water ([tex]\( H_2O \)[/tex]) are the products, which means they are the substances formed as a result of the chemical reaction.

So, filling in the blanks:
- Ammonia ([tex]\( NH_3 \)[/tex]) is a product.
- Ammonium hydroxide ([tex]\( NH_4OH \)[/tex]) is a reactant.
