Liquor Ammonia
Liquor ammonia, also known as aqueous ammonia, ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH), or ammonia water, is a solution of ammonia gas (NH3) dissolved in water, commonly available in concentrations of 20–28% . It appears as a clear, colorless liquid with a very strong, pungent, and “fishy” odor. Although often referred to as ammonium hydroxide, it is physically impossible to isolate pure ; it exists as an equilibrium of ammonia and water molecules linked by hydrogen bonds.
Ammonia solutions are used as cleaning products for many surfaces and applications. Ammonia in water is sold as a cleaning agent by itself, usually labeled as simply “ammonia”, as well as in cleaning products combined with other ingredients. It may be sold plain, lemon-scented (and typically colored yellow), or pine-scented (green). Commonly available ammonia with soap added is known as “cloudy ammonia”.
