Ammonia is a compound that consists of nitrogen and hydrogen with the molecular formula NH3. It is a colorless gas with a pungent odor and is highly soluble in water. Ammonia is naturally found in the air, soil, and water and is produced through the breakdown of organic matter by bacteria.

Ammonia has many industrial uses, including as a refrigerant in cooling systems and as a feedstock in the production of fertilizers, plastics, and other chemicals. It is also commonly used in cleaning products, such as glass cleaners and floor cleaners, due to its ability to dissolve and remove dirt and grime. However, pure ammonia can be dangerous and can cause skin irritation, eye damage, and respiratory issues if not handled properly.
