    Acetone will react with ammonia. Acetone will act as an Lewis Acid and ammonia will act as a Lewis Base in this situation. The nitrogen in NH3 is very reactive because of its lone pair of electrons (The nitrogen is delta - ve), so it will attack the carbon cation center of the acetone (which is delta + ve).
