Problem

A solution contains 0.50 M NH₃(aq) and 0.50 M NH₄Cl(aq). A few drops of 0.10 M HCl(aq) are introduced. Which net ionic equation best represents the reaction that minimizes the change in pH? a) NH3(aq)+H2O(l)→NH4+(aq)+OH−(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow NH_4^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)} b) NH3(aq)+H+(aq)→NH4+(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq)+H^+(aq)\rightarrow NH_4^+(aq)} c) NH4+(aq)+OH−(aq)→NH3(aq)+H2O(l)\mathrm{NH_4^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow NH_3(aq)+H_2O(l)} d) NH3(aq)+Cl−(aq)→NH4Cl(aq)\mathrm{NH_3(aq)+Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow NH_4Cl(aq)}
