Ammonia solution also known as ammonium hydroxide ammonia water ammonical liquor ammonia liquor aqua ammonia aqueous ammonia or simply ammonia is a solution of ammonia in water. It can be denoted by the symbols NH3(aq). Although the name ammonium hydroxide suggests an alkali with composition [NH4+][OH−] it is actually impossible to isolate samples of NH4OH as these ions do not comprise a significant fraction of the total amount of ammonia except in extremely dilute solutions.
