Ionisation of NH4OH is represented as follows :

It has ionisation constant,

Kb has constant value at constant temperature. When strong electrolyte NH4Cl is added to its solution, it dissociates completely.

Due to common ion \(NH_4^{-}\), by Le Chatelier’s principle, the equilibrium is shifted from right to left, suppressing the ionisation of NH4OH.
