Here is a table that lists the pKa for organic and inorganic compounds.

For example, H2O is 15.7 and HF is 3.17. That means HF is a stronger acid than H2O. I couldn't find NH3 in that list but it is 9.25. Be sure you look in the water column and not the DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) column for the right solvent.
