Correct Answer: Ammonia


Solution : The correct option is Ammonia.

Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) is created when ammonia gas dissolves in water. The strong base in this solution, along with the gas, will cause the solution to become alkaline. A negative and a positive ion are created when gas dissolves in water and ionizes. A colourless gas is soluble in water and polar due to hydrogen bonding with water.
