Is Nh3 a Stronger Base

As it happens, ammonia (NH3) is not a strong acid; it is a weak base.

Which is a stronger base OH or H2O?

Why is hydroxide ion a stronger base than water? The oxygen in hydroxide ion is a better proton (H+) acceptor than the oxygen in water because the electron density at the oxygen in hyroxide ion is higher. The oxygen atom in hydroxide is sharing fewer of its electron pairs and is therefore more negative.

Can H2O be a base?

Answers. Under the right conditions, H2O can donate a proton, making it a Brønsted-Lowry acid. Under the right conditions, H2O can accept a proton, making it a Brønsted-Lowry base.
