Ammonia is added to water. Which equation most correctly depicts the proton-transfer process and the resulting conjugate acid–base pairs? a) NH3(aq)+H2O(l)⇌NH2−(aq)+H3O+(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons NH_2^-(aq) + H_3O^+(aq)} b) NH3(aq)+H2O(l)⇌NH4+(aq)+OH−(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons NH_4^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)} c) NH3(aq)+H2O(l)⇌NH4OH(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons NH_4OH(aq)} d) NH3(aq)+OH−(aq)⇌NH2−(aq)+H2O(l)\mathrm{NH_3(aq) + OH^-(aq) \rightleftharpoons NH_2^-(aq) + H_2O(l)}
