Because aqueous ammonia is a gas dissolved in water, as the water evaporates from a surface, the gas evaporates also, leaving the surface streak-free. Its most common uses are to clean glass [10], porcelain, and stainless steel. It is good at removing grease and is found in products for cleaning ovens and for soaking items to loosen baked-on grime.
Ammonia readily dissolves in water. In an aqueous solution, it can be expelled by boiling. The aqueous solution of ammonia is basic, and may be described as aqueous ammonia or ammonium hydroxide. [30] The maximum concentration of ammonia in water (a saturated solution) has a specific gravity of 0.880 and is often known as '.880 ammonia'. [31]
The table above gives properties of the vapor–liquid equilibrium of anhydrous ammonia at various temperatures. The second column is vapor pressure in kPa. The third column is the density of the liquid phase. The fourth column is the density of the vapor. The fifth column is the heat of vaporization needed to convert one gram of liquid to vapor.
Liquid ammonia will dissolve all of the alkali metals and other electropositive metals such as Ca, [3] Sr, Ba, Eu, and Yb (also Mg using an electrolytic process [4]), giving characteristic blue solutions. For alkali metals in liquid ammonia, the solution is blue when dilute and copper-colored when more concentrated (> 3 molar). [5]
For example, the limiting acid in liquid ammonia is the ammonium ion, NH 4 + which has a pK a value in water of 9.25. The limiting base is the amide ion, NH 2-. NH 2 − is a stronger base than the hydroxide ion and so cannot exist in aqueous solution. The pK a value of ammonia is estimated to be approximately 34 (c.f. water, 14 [3] [4]).
The solute can be a solid, a liquid, or a gas, while the solvent is usually solid or liquid. Both may be pure substances, or may themselves be solutions. Gases are always miscible in all proportions, except in very extreme situations, [3] and a solid or liquid can be "dissolved" in a gas only by passing into the gaseous state first.

A suspension of liquid droplets or fine solid particles in a gas is called an aerosol. In the atmosphere , the suspended particles are called particulates and consist of fine dust and soot particles, sea salt , biogenic and volcanogenic sulfates , nitrates , and cloud droplets.
