Ammonia doesn't contain hydroxide ions, but it reacts with water to produce ammonium ions and hydroxide ions. ... A weak base is one which doesn't convert fully into hydroxide ions in solution. When a weak base reacts with water, the position of equilibrium varies from base to base. Ammonia releases hydroxide ions when it dissolves, but only because the ammonia steals a proton from a water molecule: ... In the case of NaOH, the hydroxide ions come from the crystal lattice of the solid, and in the case of NH3 they come from dissociated water molecules whose protons have combined with NH3 to form, NH4+.
