Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

NH4Cl + H2O = NH4+ + HCl (equation 1). Cl- + H2O = H+ Cl- +H2O (equation 2). The chloride (Cl-) first associates with water ( H2O) to form hydrochloric acid (HCl) and the dissociation of HCl produces hydrogen ions (H+).

No, it is not NR. The reaction between nitric acid and ammonium chloride produces ammonium nitrate and hydrogen chloride gas.
