The conjugate acid of amide ion `(NH_(2)^(-))` is

A

`N_(2)H_(4)`

B

`NH_(2)OH`

C

`NH_(4)^(+)`

D

`NH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Whenever a species accepts a proton, it forms a conjugate acid. Thus, to find the conjugated acid of amide ion `(NH_(2)^(-))`, we add `H^(+)` and put one more positive charge (i.e., increase charge by 1),
`H^(+)+underset("Base")(NH_(2)^(+))rarr underset("Acid")(NH_(3))`
