Ammoniakkiliuosta

Ammoniakkiliuosta, also known as ammonium hydroxide, is a clear, colorless liquid with a strong, pungent odor. It is a solution of ammonia in water, with the chemical formula NH3(aq). The concentration of ammonia in the solution can vary, but it is typically around 25% by weight. Ammoniakkiliuosta is a weak base and is commonly used in various industrial and household applications.

In industrial settings, ammoniakkiliuosta is used as a cleaning agent, a refrigerant, and a component in fertilizers. It is also used in the production of plastics, textiles, and pharmaceuticals. In households, it is often used as a general-purpose cleaner and a disinfectant. However, due to its strong odor and potential health risks, it should be handled with care.

Ammoniakkiliuosta can be harmful if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Inhalation of ammonia fumes can cause irritation to the respiratory tract, while ingestion can lead to stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting. Prolonged exposure can cause more serious health issues, including damage to the lungs and central nervous system. Therefore, it is important to use ammoniakkiliuosta in a well-ventilated area and to wear appropriate protective gear when handling it.
