Ammonia solutions decrease in density as the concentration of dissolved ammonia increases. At 15.6 °C (60.1 °F), the density of a saturated solution is 0.88 g/ml; it contains 35.6% ammonia by mass, 308 grams of ammonia per litre of solution, and has a molarity of approximately 18 mol/L.
Ammonium sulfate is made by treating ammonia with sulfuric acid: 2 NH 3 + H 2 SO 4 → (NH 4) 2 SO 4. A mixture of ammonia gas and water vapor is introduced into a reactor that contains a saturated solution of ammonium sulfate and about 2% to 4% of free sulfuric acid at 60 °C.

Ammonium is a modified form of ammonia that has an extra hydrogen atom. It is a positively charged molecular ion with the chemical formula NH + 4 or [NH 4] +.It is formed by the addition of a proton (a hydrogen nucleus) to ammonia (NH 3).
Ammonium bicarbonate decomposes above about 36 °C into ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water in an endothermic process and so causes a drop in the temperature of the water: NH 4 HCO 3 → NH 3 + H 2 O + CO 2. When treated with acids, ammonium salts are also produced: NH 4 HCO 3 + HCl → NH 4 Cl + CO 2 + H 2 O. Reaction with base produces ammonia.
The industrial production of ammonium nitrate entails the acid-base reaction of ammonia with nitric acid: [12] HNO 3 + NH 3 → NH 4 NO 3. The ammonia required for this process is obtained by the Haber process from nitrogen and hydrogen. Ammonia produced by the Haber process can be oxidized to nitric acid by the Ostwald process.
