Why is ammonia important? The primary use of ammonia (NH3) is to provide nitrogen atoms for plants so they are able to make amino acids, proteins, and other biologically important molecules. In order to provide the vast amount of food demanded by a growing industrialised population, more efficient agricultural techniques and larger scale farms must be employed. There exists some naturally occurring nitrogen fixing bacteria that are able to convert atmospheric N2 into the more useful form of NH3…

need certain macronutrients and micronutrients. They need the macronutrients: nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium, sulfur, magnesium; and the micronutrients: boron, chlorine, manganese, iron, zinc, copper, molybdenum, and nickel. (3). Fertilizer enhances the growth rate of plants. Fertilizer adds nutrients and modifies the water retention and aeration of plants. Fertilizer contains three main macronutrients: nitrogen for leaf growth; phosphorus for the development of roots, flowers, seeds,…

resulting in ammonia. Nitrification is a process by which ammonia is oxidized to nitrite and then nitrite is oxidized to nitrate. Denitrification is a process by which nitrate is converted into nitrogen gas or nitrous oxide by denitrifiers. Nitrogen fixation is a process by which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into ammonia by symbiotic or non-symbiotic mechanisms. 2. The distinguishing difference between the three types of soil used (cactus soil, peat moss, and all-purpose potting soil)…

The FTIR spectra of four phosphazenium salts and P5+ are shown in Figure S1. Four phosphazenium salts have characteristic absorptions at 2850 and 2930 cm-1, belonging to the stretching vibration of -CH2- and -CH-, respectively, and this peak in the P5+ represents the absorption of –CH3. All the five compounds exhibit absorption at 960, 1230, and 1442 cm-1 corresponding to the stretching vibrations of P–N. In the FTIR spectrum of Cy4P1+BF4-, the peaks at 1633 and 3432 cm-1 belong to water because…

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…

In problem one, we were simulating an ammonia production by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen in a reaction called Haber process. Haber process is a very economic exothermic reaction to produce ammonia by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen using a metal catalyst in high pressure and temperature. Nitrogen was obtained from the air and therefore, some argon would be included in this simulation. On the other hand, hydrogen was obtained from the cracking of petroleum. The simulation process started where…

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…
