Nitrogen cycle

Known for the method used in industry to synthesize ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen gases, Fritz Haber was, and still is, a well-known German chemist whose invention is used today for the production of fertilizers, cleaning products, and explosives. He was born on December 9, 1868, in Breslau, Prussia. Three weeks after being born, his mother passed away due to the toll her pregnancy took on her, thus leaving him to be raised in a Jewish household by his father, Siegfried, and several of his…

Bam! Bam! Bam! goes the gun of a soldier. Have you ever wondered where gunpowder came from? Gunpowder, as well as silk and paper, are just some of many objects traded along the Silk Road that have an impact on our lives today. To begin with the silk road was a trading system and gunpowder was one of the objects exchange on the silk road.Gunpowder is made out of charcoal but it is also known as black powder. Gunpowder is a explosive chemicals which means it is very dangerous. Back to what I was…

Explosion The explosion was a nice thing to learn if you want to be a bomb maker, I’m going to research the history about the bomb and explosion and then I’m going to research the step and the material about the bomb and how to make a bomb easy to carry and make the bomb not easy to be founded. If you want it to explosion, you have to have to material of that, so the material of that have a lot of kind such as: Octanitrocubane HMX Tetry Trinitrotoluene and the most famous one and the most…

Unguiculata, meaning it is a legume and in the same family as many other beans. The California Black-eyed pea has very few pests and diseases and is nitrogen fixing. This pea can survive harsh heat and drought but any frost will hurt the plant, they grow in temperate sub-tropical regions. All members of the pea family have a low sodium tolerance which should show more drastic effects with different amounts…

The water quality of the U-High Creek has been tested to be excellent. However, that does not mean that every creek is pure or excellent. Some people, more specifically farmers, use fertilizers made from Nitrogen and Phosphorus to kill pests or bugs. Little do they know, the pesticide or fertilizers get into streams and creeks and contaminate it leaving algae growing more rapidly or consistently. Consequently, if the algae overfills the creek, organisms will then die out from oxygen shortage…

Phosphorus Reduction: The New Pig in Town The 21st century is one abloom with scientific and technological advancement. From the sequencing of the human genome to the development of touchscreen phones, this century, albeit just beginning, has already surmounted the expectations of what people ever imagined possible. Advances in genetics have become especially important to swine production and, consequently, to the environment as well. Excess phosphorus in manure has the potential to runoff into…

what is essentially the mixture of the firework together in a paste like mixture. 2. What are the most abundant elements found in the human body? Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements called oxygen, carbon,hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is made up of another five elements called potassium, sulfur,sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. These elements are necessary to life. 3. Which element has the lowest melting point? The chemical element…

Christian Friedrich Schonbein One of the more obscure scientists, Christian Friedrich Schonbein was well known for his discovery of ozone as well as work on fuel cells. He along with Friedrich Goppelsroeder discovered and coined capillary analysis, and later on, paper chromatography. My project centers on ink chromatography and capillary action, both of which were discovered by Friedrich Goppelsroeder and Christian Friedrich Schonbein. Of the two men, Christian Friedrich Schonbein was a more…

The catechol estrogens can give rise to semiquinones and o-quinones by any oxidizing enzyme or transition metal ions such as Cu2＋ or Fe3 [66, 67, 68]. ROS including superoxide anion radicals and hydroxyl radicals is generated when semiquinones are converted to o-quinones and o quinones are reduced back to catechols and semiquinones. These metal ions and hydroxyl radicals are responsible for oxidative damage to DNA, lipids and proteins [69, 70]. Sulfation of E2 leads to decreased hormonal…
