Question

The correct products of the reaction between HCl and NH3 are Cl^- and NH4^+. NH3 acts as a base and accepts a proton from HCl, becoming NH4^+ (its conjugate acid), while HCl donates a proton and becomes Cl^-, its conjugate base. Thus, the conjugate acid-base pairs are (NH3, NH4^+) and (Cl^-, HCl).
