(D) $NH_{3}$ (Ammonia) is a weak base because it does not completely dissociate into ions in an aqueous solution. When it reacts with water,it accepts a proton $(H^{+})$ to form ammonium $(NH_{4}^{+})$ and hydroxide $(OH^{-})$ ions,but this reaction is reversible and does not go to completion. Therefore,it is classified as a weak base.
