It's so hard to get a straight answer to this question! All over the internet some say ammonium is weak and ammonia is strong, the excel past hsc exam book says that ammonium is strong and ammonia is weak, and some people say both are weak. I don't know what to think anymore. Help!

For hsc purposes, ammonia is weak base so ammonium is strong conjugate acid
