Why is NH4 more acidic than NH3?

[Breezy]

A.) bONDING B.) VESPR C.) formal Charge D.) hybridization E.) Octet Rule F.) Valency G.) oRBITAL tHEORY H.)Resonance. Using these answers choices why is:

 

1.) NH4 more acidic than NH3

2.) CH2=CH2 is more acidic than CH3-CH3

3.)Formal Charge of H3O IS +1 AND BH3 IS ZERO

4.) CH2=CH-NH2 IS LESS BASIC THAN CH3-CH2-NH2

5.) H-O-CO-CH3 IS MORE ACIDIC THAN H-O-CH2-CH3

Looks like someone's trying to solve a homework problem. There's a section for that.

Tell us what you think and display some reasoning. We'll step in from there.

Breezy, if you want members to help you here, you need to put in a little effort. What have you come up with so far and where exactly are you stuck?
