Difficult Chemistry Balance Equation

Cu (s) + NH4OH (aq) ---> ?
I don't know what it becomes, so I don't know how to balance it. Any ideas?

CuOH+NH4... yeah that sounds good

@Jackaloftheazuresand Brother your friendly term harmed my emotions.

@MaybeTooNarcissistic Yep, seems like it

I sucked at chemestry (physics and math were my things) but I found this for you:

http://www.webqc.org/balance.php?reaction=CuSO4%28aq%29+%2B+NH4OH%28aq%29+%3D+Cu%28OH%292%28s%29+%2B+%28NH4%292SO4%28aq%29

It's a website with a balance calculator in it. I found it by doing a good search on:

Cu (s) + NH4OH (aq)

then choose the first result.

Isn't it an acid base reaction. If it is, then their is neutralisation and it results in the formation of water and a salt. Maybe I answered right.

@deevan11 Where is the acid? It's just a base and a metal.

@MaybeTooNarcissistic Then it is like electrolysis. May be the copper is acting as anode and the ammonium hydroxide is the electrolyte. 😕😕😕

I have yet to learn this. I may be wrong but Cu seems code for acid NH alkaline??? Lol am bad at science. I just know Igneous and sedimentary 🤣

@Rob04 Sorry dude, Cu is just Copper.
