Step-by-step explanation:

Ammonia will dissolve in water to produce a basic solution of ammonium hydroxide.

NH₃ + H₂O ---> NH₄OH

Ammonium hydroxide in solution will split into its ions.

NH₄OH ---> NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

According to the problem when 34 g of of ammonia are dissolved 92 kJ of energy are absorbed.

34 g of NH₃ : 92 kJ of energy

We can use that relationship to find the mass of ammonia that is dissolved when 184 kJ is absorbed.

mass of NH₃ = 184 kJ * 34 g/(92 kJ)

mass of NH₃ = 68 g

Answer:

NH₃ + H₂O ---> NH₄OH NH₄OH ---> NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

68 g of ammonia are dissolved.
