If ammonium hydroxide is distilled i "think" that liquid ammonia would be recovered. I could be wrong but seems plausible.

Yes, ammonium hydroxide can be removed by distillation. It has a boiling point of around 37.7°C, so careful distillation at a higher temperature can help separate it from other compounds in a mixture.
Ammonium Hydroxide
Yes, ammonium hydroxide contains nitrogen in the form of ammonium ion (NH4+). Ammonium hydroxide is a solution of ammonia gas in water, forming ammonium ion and hydroxide ion (OH-).
The ions of ammonium hydroxide are NH4+ (ammonium ion) and OH- (hydroxide ion). Ammonium hydroxide is a compound formed by the combination of ammonia (NH3) and water (H2O).
Ammonium itself is not an acid or a base; it is a positively charged ion (NH4+). Ammonium hydroxide, on the other hand, is a weak base due to the presence of the hydroxide ion (OH-) in its chemical structure.
Sodium hydroxide is a stronger base than ammonium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide dissociates more readily in water to produce hydroxide ions, resulting in a higher pH compared to ammonium hydroxide.
