The iupac name for the common household cleaner, ammonia, is nitrogen trihydride. identify the formula of ammonia

The correct option is B.

Explanation: Ammonia which is used as a household cleaner, has an IUPAC name as nitrogen trioxide.

Symbol for Nitrogen = N

Symbol for Hydrogen = H

In ammonia, Number of nitrogen atoms are 3 and number of hydrogen atoms are 3.

The formula for ammonia becomes

Therefore, the correct option is B.

The formula of ammonis is given as .

Explanation:

The given IUPAC name of ammonia is nitrogen trihydride.

From the name of IUPAC name of the ammonia it is evident that there is only one atom of nitrogen is present in one molecule of ammonia.

Word 'trihydride ' means a that there are three hydrogen atoms present as hydride in one ammonia molecule.

So, the formula of ammonia will be guven as:
