The equation NH4Cl -> NH3 + HCl

Detailed information about the NH₄Cl -> NH₃ + HClequation -> :
This chemical equation describes the decomposition reaction of ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) to produce ammonia (NH₃) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). In this reaction, NH₄Cl is the reactant, while NH₃ and HCl are the reaction products.

Reaction conditions:
This reaction requires high temperature (about 338°C) to occur.

Reaction process:
When heated, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) decomposes to form ammonia (NH₃) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). This process is a thermodynamic decomposition reaction.

Phenomena observed:
When NH₄Cl is heated, we can notice the transformation from the solid state of NH₄Cl to gas. This gas, when produced, will have the characteristic smell of ammonia and hydrochloric acid. The NH₃ and HCl gases will evaporate out of the solution.
