Tris is usually sold as a base, but I have on occasion seen it sold as its hydrochloride salt, which is the conjugate acid of Tris base.  It is a commonly used buffer in biochemistry, with certain things to recommend it, as well as some shortcomings.

Tris is a primary amine (RNH2), Tris.HCl RNH3Cl) is a salt of this amine. In reactions treat them analogously to NH3 and NH4Cl.
