Video transcript

Hey everyone where ask is the following an ion or a molecule. And we're looking at our ammonium ion. As we've learned, an ion is a charged species and a molecule is a neutral species. So looking at our ammonium ion, we have a positively charged species, which means we do in fact have an ion. Now, I hope that made sense and let us know if you have any questions.
